    Here are some great resources for learning quantum computing: Qiskit Textbook, Quantum Computing for the Very Curious, and Microsoft's Quantum Katas.

    • binarydude 11 months ago | next

      Great suggestions! I would also add the Q# Courses by the Microsoft Quantum team for more in-depth learning.

      • qubitenthusiast 11 months ago | next

        I have heard great things about the Quantum Machine Learning course from quantum.country. Has anyone taken it?

        • aiquantum 11 months ago | next

          Yes, I took the Quantum Machine Learning course and it was fantastic. It delves deep into quantum algorithms for machine learning.

    • quantumtheorist 11 months ago | prev | next

      I recommend starting with the Quantum Open Source Foundation's resources, including Qiskit and Cirq.

      • qcstudent 11 months ago | next

        I have been following the Quantum Computing Stack Exchange forum for daily discussions and learning great tips.

        • qmljunkie 11 months ago | next

          The Quantum Computing Report is one of the most comprehensive newsletters out there. I highly recommend subscribing for weekly updates.

          • qubitdev 11 months ago | next

            The Quantum Computing Report is a great resource. I always find useful information from their newsletter.

    • quantumdude 11 months ago | prev | next

      The Quantum Engineering Toolkit (QETLAB) is a great open-source tool for learning quantum computing.

      • quantumcomputing 11 months ago | next

        QETLAB is a great tool for more advanced users. I recommend starting with the resources in the Qiskit Textbook before moving onto QETLAB.

      Pennylane is another open-source library for building quantum computers. You might want to check it out.

      • neuralquantum 11 months ago | next

        Pennylane is a great library for building quantum computers. I recently started using it with PyTorch and have been impressed.

      • qmlguru 11 months ago | prev | next

        Pennylane is a different kind of library. It's designed for making quantum simulations and allow to implements QML.

    • quantumadventurer 11 months ago | prev | next

      I found that the book 'Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computation' by Nielsen and Chuang to be a good resource. It covers both the principles of quantum mechanics and the applications in quantum computing.

    • quantumfan 11 months ago | prev | next

      Check out Quantum Computing Report, Pennylane, Quantum Computing Stack Exchange and the book 'An Introduction to Quantum Computing' by Phillip Kaye, Raymond Laflamme, and Michele Mosca.

  • quantumsensei 11 months ago | prev | next

    If you haven't already, check out the book 'An Introduction to Quantum Computing' by Phillip Kaye, Raymond Laflamme, and Michele Mosca.

    • quantumfreak 11 months ago | next

      Thanks for the recommendation! I'll add it to my reading list.

  • quantumtech 11 months ago | prev | next

    I would also recommend joining quantum computing online communities such as the quantum subreddit and the Quantum Computing Stack Exchange for daily discussions and up to date information.

  • quantumguru 11 months ago | prev | next

    Check out the MIT OpenCourseWare 'Quantum Computation and Quantum Information' for a more academic approach to learning QC.

    • quantumlearner 11 months ago | next

      Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check out the MIT OpenCourseWare 'Quantum Computation and Quantum Information'!

    • qcmastermind 11 months ago | prev | next

      The MIT Quantum Computing course is amazing. Highly recommend it.

      • quantumgenius 11 months ago | next

        I find that learning quantum computing requires a strong background in linear algebra, group theory and complex analysis. Anyone agree?

        • quantumphysicist 11 months ago | next

          I would agree. A strong foundation in the mathematical principles is crucial for fully understanding quantum computing concepts.

  • quantumleader 11 months ago | prev | next

    To learn Quantum Computing, one must learn the basic quantum mechanics. I would recommend starting with 'A Modern Approach to Quantum Mechanics' by Townsend.

    • quantumbuilder 11 months ago | next

      Thanks, I will definitely look into it.

  • quantumstar 11 months ago | prev | next

    Don't forget that IBM Q Experience is a great platform for learning and experimenting with real quantum computers, and their Quantum Computing course on Coursera is great too!

  • quantumsolutions 11 months ago | prev | next

    The Qiskit Textbook, Quantum Computing for the Very Curious, and Microsoft's Quantum Katas are amazing resources. But for a more algorithmic approach, check out the book 'Quantum Computing: A Gentle Introduction' byADD AN ANSWER!

    • quantumfuturist 11 months ago | next

      Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out!
