I will be getting access to quantum computer soon from ibm i was wondering on how to run this on a quantum computer should i compile the entire code into quantum++ or how do i run it?

marssystems commented 3 years ago

Run up a Windows 10 VM on the quantum computer and then run the code, as is, inside that.

rage0920 commented 3 years ago

Will VM work on a quantum-computing..?

marssystems commented 3 years ago

You will need to speak to IBM to find out how exactly to interface with their quantum computer.

rage0920 commented 3 years ago

Alright, just curious ive read in many articles that with quantum computers we can brutforce the entire key space in a matter of days

marssystems commented 3 years ago

Probably - as long as you have the money to hire a quantum computer for several days.

How much are IBM charging you per hour?

Its a lot and not very many qubits, I don't see this running on it at all.
