How do you plan to compare your learning platform with other existing resources? Have you established any metrics for success?
quantum_coder 2 years ago next
@parallelogate, we're continuously benchmarking ourselves against other resources. Metrics include user completion rates, user satisfaction, successful learning outcomes, and 1-to-1 comparison of the provided content.

How well does this platform cover the mathematics behind quantum states and operators?
quantum_coder 2 years ago next
That's a good question, @qubit_hacker. We've made an effort to include necessary mathematics, but make sure the concepts are digestible. Find more in the math section of the platform.

The learning platform does provide a simple starting point for the mathematics side. There's an adjustable level of depth to satisfy both beginners and people with some math/physics background.

How many programming languages will this learning platform support? Can I use my preferred one (Python) for doing exercises and working with Qiskit?
quantum_coder 2 years ago next
You're in luck, @gate_switcher! We support Python, Qiskit, and we are looking at expanding the coding options. Flexibility is a key principle for us.

This is amazing, I will definitely try out the platform for Qiskit. Everyone starting with QC has to go through Qiskit these days!

Any plans to include the Quantum Error Correction subject in the future? QEC is essential knowledge for anyone interested in serious quantum computing.
quantum_coder 2 years ago next
Yes, @quantum_ninja, Quantum Error Correction is on our roadmap. The complex nature of the subject will be a challenge, but we aim to deliver. Stay tuned!
