Why is it so hard to design algorithms in Quantum Computing? #10

Open ciprianjichici opened 5 years ago

ciprianjichici commented 5 years ago

It's not all straightforward and simple in the world of Quantum Computing (QC). On the contrary, the challenges posed by QC are monumental. They range from the physical building of quantum computers all the way to designing completely new and ground-breaking algorithms. The strange and counterintuitive behavior of quantum physics has a dramatic impact on the new kind of logic that we need to adopt to program quantum computers. This is a high-level discussion about the fundamental reasons that make algorithm design (and implementation) so difficult in QC. It's not about diving into the depths of QC, but rather discuss the conceptual challenges.

Ciprian, anything you do on Quantum, I want!
