interesting read! I still havent had a reason to play with quantum computing. This article makes it seem less challenging to approach, maybe ill give it a try sometime.
The number labels of the x-axis represent the different answers from the magic 8-ball in the following order: “Yes” (001), “Not today” (001), “Definitely” (010), “Try again” (011), “Signs point to yes” (100), “Not likely” (101), “Sure thing!” (110), and “Outlook not so good” (111).
Assuming this is a mistype? Yes and Not Today are both “001”. Should “Yes” actually be “000” (which is the label used on the graph above this paragraph
I got interested in quantum computing because I like computing already (compsci degree) but also because I have an interest in natural philosophy. Answering the question of “what is nature?” obviously requires the input of physics and if you don’t know at least introductory quantum information science then you will not be able to follow along with many important papers on this topic (Bell’s theorem, the Frauchiger-Renner Paradox, the Elitzur-Vaidman paradox, etc). Learning to program for quantum computers gives you an understanding of the overall logical structure of how quantum systems work which then makes it feasible to understand those kinds of papers.
