If quantum computers would really catch on, we'd use frameworks to work with them. Only a handful of people understand the mathematics which are required to develop algorithms for QCs. As an example, check out the QC search algorithm. Basic...

Quantum computing is here and will change the way how everything operates. Video games are a given improvement, but the real change in video games won't be the graphics or A.I. The biggest change will involve the ability to learn from the g...

It would be useful to understand why we should bother about this craziness when we already have ultra fast computers which are doubling in speed every 6 months (Moore’s Law).

Over 400 million transistors are packed on dual-core chips manufactured using Intel's 45nm process . That'll double soon, per Moore's Law. And it'll still be like computing with pebbles compared to quantum computing Quantum computing is a...

No Quantum computing only speeds up what is currently available. There is almost nothing that can be done on on a quantum computer that isn't done on a standard computer. The basics of programming will still be the same. Programming just al...

You need to know both. The theory of what can be done with a quantum computer is pure computer science, while the actual mechanics of it are physics/chem/bio. My suggestion is to do a double-major so that you get the best of both worlds. Pe...
