Look inside

In this liveProject, you’ll explore quantum mechanical phenomena for information transmission. You’ll go hands on with two quantum communication protocols—quantum teleportation and superdense coding. You’ll implement each protocol using Q# and simulate it running, before visualizing the intermediary states of the quantum system.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.

project author

Mariia Mykhailova
Mariia Mykhailova is a senior software engineer at Microsoft Quantum, where she focuses on education and developer outreach. Mariia is the author and maintainer of the Quantum Katas project, an open-source collection of hands-on tutorials and exercises for learning quantum computing using the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit. She is the lead organizer of the Q# Coding Contests series, and is also a part-time lecturer at Northeastern University Seattle, teaching the class "Introduction to Quantum Computing." She hosted quantum computing workshops and presented her work in quantum computing education at multiple events and conferences.

prerequisites

This liveProject is for software engineers interested in exploring hands-on quantum computing. To begin this liveProject you will need to be familiar with the following:
