Basics for the Baddies: Quantum Computing
from That's Girl Code · host thatsgirlcode
Ellen goes solo to tackle quantum computing! She walks through quantum computing basics: classical bits vs. qubits, what superposition and the Bloch sphere actually mean, why rotating qubits creates wave interference that amplifies right answers and cancels wrong ones, why that gives quantum computers an exponential edge over brute force, and why all of it points toward Shor's algorithm eventually breaking RSA-2048 encryption.
