Quantum Programming in Depth

Go beyond the basics with this in-depth guide to quantum programming.Here’s something you already know: quantum computing is a deep subject. Quantum Programming in Depth takes you beyond quantum basics and shows you how to take on practical quantum problem solving and programming using Q# and Qiskit. Author Mariia Mykhailova, a principal quantum applications software developer at PsiQuantum, guides you every step of the way.In Quantum Programming in Depth you’ll explore:Algorithms to solve challenging quantum computing problemsWriting quantum programs with Q# and QiskitTesting quantum programs with simulators and specialized toolsEvaluating performance of quantum programs on future fault-tolerant quantum computersQuantum Programming in Depth shows you how to do quantum computing outside the lab or classroom, presenting problems of quantum programming and demonstrating how they’re solved. You’ll learn to write quantum programs using Qiskit and Q#—and even how to test your quantum code using common testing tools like pytest. You’ll learn to prepare quantum states and implement operations, extract information from quantum states and operations, evaluate classical functions on a quantum computer, solve search problems, and more.About the TechnologyGoing from the basic quantum concepts to developing software for quantum computers can be difficult! Algorithms that leverage quantum phenomena require new ways of thinking about computation and new approaches to writing code, testing it, and evaluating its performance. This book bridges the gap between QC theory and quantum programming in practice.About the BookQuantum Programming in Depth shows you how to solve quantum computing problems in a programmer-friendly way. The book’s hands-on project-based approach will hone your quantum skills using realistic problems and progressively harder programming challenges. As you read, you’ll design quantum algorithms and explore their performance on future fault-tolerant quantum computers.What’s InsideSolve challenging quantum computing problemsWrite quantum programs with Q# and QiskitTest quantum programsEvaluate performance of quantum programsAbout the ReadersFor students and software engineers who know Python and the basic concepts of quantum computing.About the AuthorMariia Mykhailova is a principal quantum applications software developer at PsiQuantum.Table of Contents1 Quantum computing: The hype and the promisePart 12 Preparing quantum states3 Implementing quantum operationsPart 24 Analyzing quantum states5 Analyzing quantum operationsPart 36 Evaluating classical functions on a quantum computer7 Grover’s search algorithm8 Solving N queens puzzle using Grover’s algorithm9 Evaluating the performance of quantum algorithmsA Setting up your environment
