Quantum Computing with Python: From Qubits to Circuits

Quantum Computing with Python: From Qubits to Circuits

Have you heard the buzz about quantum computing and wondered what it actually means? This beginner-friendly talk introduces the fundamentals of quantum computing using the language we all love; Python.

We’ll start by breaking down core quantum concepts like qubits, superposition, entanglement, and quantum gates in simple terms. Then, we’ll bring those ideas to life with real code using Qiskit, a powerful open-source quantum computing framework built in Python.

You'll learn how to:

• Simulate qubits and quantum circuits
• Visualize quantum states and interference
• Run your own quantum circuits on a real IBM quantum computer (yes, free and live!)

Along the way, we’ll highlight where quantum computing stands today, where Python fits in the ecosystem, and how you can get involved; whether you're a hobbyist, educator, or software developer.

No prior knowledge of quantum mechanics is needed. If you can write a 'for' loop, you can build your first quantum circuit.
