I also hope the guide covers algorithmic optimization techniques. I'm thinking of specific use cases where QC can be applied, such as shortest-path problems.

In my experience, the math behind QC is critical. I hope the guide explains the mathematical concepts in an approachable way for non-math experts.

For people without a strong math background, give them a push towards learning linear algebra. After all, QC builds on linear algebra fundamentals.

I would like the guide to cover quantum error correction too. It is an essential part of QC that people should be aware of.

I couldn't agree more with john_doe! I've seen too many abstract explanations of QC. A practical guide will benefit many software engineers who are just beginning to understand QC concepts.

A deeper understanding of gates and the qubits connections will illustrate how a quantum computer differs from classical computers. A focus on these aspects will be informative.

It's essential to share the specific libraries, languages, and tools available for QC. People always ask me which they should explore to get the most value from QC.

To anyone interested in quantum programming, Q# by Microsoft is worth diving into. The guide should mention common frameworks, libraries, and tools like Q#.

For those looking at Q#, don't forget the hybrid quantum-classical libraries that exist. I believe it's crucial to mention that we don't have to build fully quantum applications from scratch.

Indeed. And, Qiskit by IBM and Cirq by Google are worth mentioning as QC frameworks for developers. A comprehensive guide would include these as references.
