Course Summary
This course complements the Quantum Mechanics and Principles of Quantum Mechanics courses by demonstrating an application in computation. Implemented as a project, it also provides a place for students to develop team programming skills of the type routinely employed in a professional setting, and exposure to the associated tools.
Course Description
Students will form groups of about six members, who will collaborate to design, implement, and test a program to simulate a quantum computer. They will run Grover's algorithm to search an unordered list on their simulator. They may also implement other quantum algorithms, such as Shor's method for factorization.
