This book is focused on practical implementations of quantum computing algorithms—there’s no deep math or confusing theory. Using Strange, a Java-based quantum computer simulator, you’ll go hands-on with quantum computing’s core components including qubits and quantum gates.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e About the technology\u003cbr\u003e Quantum computing promises unimaginably fast performance for tasks like encryption, scientific modeling, manufacturing logistics, financial modeling, and AI. Developers can explore quantum computing now using free simulators, and increasingly powerful true quantum systems are gradually becoming available for production use. This book gives you a head start on quantum computing by introducing core concepts, key algorithms, and the most beneficial use cases.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e About the book\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eQuantum Computing in Action\u003c\/i\u003e is a gentle introduction to the ideas and applications of quantum computing. After briefly reviewing the science that makes quantum tick, it guides you through practical implementations of quantum computing algorithms. You’ll write your first quantum code and explore qubits and quantum gates with the Java-based Strange quantum simulator. You’ll enjoy the interesting examples and insightful explanations as you create quantum algorithms using standard Java and your favorite IDE and build tools.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e What's inside\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    An introduction to the core concepts of quantum computing\u003cbr\u003e     Qubits and quantum gates\u003cbr\u003e     Superposition, entanglement, and hybrid computing\u003cbr\u003e     Quantum algorithms including Shor’s, Deutsch-jozsa, and Grover’s search\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAbout the reader\u003cbr\u003e For Java developers.
