Quantum computing is on the horizon, ready to impact everything from scientific research to encryption and security. But you don’t need a physics degree to get started in quantum computing. Quantum Computing in Action shows you how to leverage your existing Java skills into writing your first quantum software so you’re ready for the revolution.Want to learn about QC, while being able to pass through page 1?

About the Technology
Whilst quantum hardware is still on the edge of development, the underlying principles for writing quantum software are well-established. Right now developers can utilize quantum simulators, like Java-based Strange, to try quantum experiments on any platform that runs the JVM. Quantum computers store and process data in quantum bits, or ‘qubits’, which can represent more complex state than standard bits. Quantum systems promise to be significantly faster for certain types of algorithms, especially in numerical computing areas such as deep learning, scientific disciplines, and cryptography.About the book
Quantum computing is on the horizon, showing incredible promise for accelerating AI and scientific research. Delivering on these promises requires new hardware as well as a new approach to writing software that takes into account the core ideas of quantum mechanics. Quantum Computing in Action will make sure you’re prepared to start programming when quantum supercomputing becomes a practical reality for production systems.Rather than a hardware manual or academic theory guide, this book is focused on practical implementations of quantum computing algorithms. Using Strange, a Java-based quantum computer simulator, you’ll go hands-on with quantum computing’s core components including qubits and quantum gates as you write your very first quantum code. By the end of the book you’ll be ahead of the game with the skills to create quantum algorithms using standard Java and your favorite IDE and build tools.
