Course Overview
Learn the basics of qubits, gates, quantum superposition, entanglement, and fundamental algorithms like Deutsch-Jozsa and Shor.
This course introduces the basic concepts of quantum information processing. Students will build simulation workflows using Qiskit, Cirq, and custom numerical tools in Python. By the end, they will program real quantum backends.
