I worked with quantum computing and quantum computers for a long while before. I always keep an eye in this area too. I am not researcher, instead a quantum computing users. So I am not going deep into this area, instead focusing on application and some hands-on experience with quantum computing.
I will take a quick first route to write a few sections and gradually add more contents here.
My first contact with quantum computing is D-Wave, which is a specialized quantum computing-quantum annealing approach. I did some simulation on D-Wave quantum computer (it is really cool) and some research on the quantum annealing process too.
Some people would say D-Wave is not really a quantum computer. However, thinking of quantum computers are not general purpose computers, so I don't agree with such assessment.
Here is the link to D-Wave system.
In order to understand quantum computing, we need to know the basic qubit, which is the counterpart of bit of the conventional/classical computer. Bit has only two values 1 or 0 or on/off. Qubit could take infinite values in a 2D dimension, a.k, it has strength and direction.
There are three key ideas for qubit: superposition, entanglement, and interference.
