Now, I know it is all very well and good to simply point my inquiry to a search engine or a Veeky Forums reading list, however, they only give limited and often minimum requirements for such things.
Whereas, I would like, from those in the know, a comprehensive requirement for truly understanding quantum computing.
So, what're your suggestions mathematicians, physicists; computer scientists and engineers?
What do you need to master before studying (and understanding) quantum computing with proficiency?
Jace Cruz
Wyatt Ross
Yes. I suggest you master mathematics, physics, computer scientist and engineering before trying to tackle quantum computing.
But really, this is actually a brainlet tier question, no memes. You're asking us to give you a comprehensive study guide to understand something this complicated? All of it. Just learn all of it.
Hudson Flores
Ah yes, Veeky Forums being as useful as ever.
Colton Jackson
What the fuck else do you want? You're asking for a comprehensive work on something that people go to school for and get a PhD in. You're asking us to sum up a decades worth of work and doctorate dissertations.
Dominic Barnes
Well, first of all, since I know you're probably one of the numerous undergraduates, or worse, high schoolers on Veeky Forums, I'm going to cut straight to the point.
You told me to master ALL OF MATHEMATICS, much of it wont apply.
The same for computer engineering.
And you didn't even mention quantum physics.
So, are you going to stop LARPing, or?
Angel Ross
linear algebra is a good starting point
Liam Morgan
Some people in QC are mathematicians, they mostly study the possible quantum algorithms
Some people are material scientists, they study how to actually make quantum computers.
It's one or the other, you only need a cursory understanding of the physics if you're an algorithmicist, and vice-versa.
Asher Howard
sounds like you have exactly the same amount of knowledge on quantum computing as OP and your comments in this thread are next to useless
>YOU HAVE TO MASTER EVERYTHING, QUANTUM COMPUTING REQUIRES ALL KNOWLEDGE
I'm no expert, but I think that's an exaggeration
Isaac Long
Thank you, that's as concise as I wanted.
Michael Thomas
I'm not an undergrad in any of those. I'm just simply pointing out you're not smart enough to do quantum computing, as you don't even understand what it is. It's not one guy who got a degree in "quantum computing". It's a team of several people who got separate degrees. Such as, the team will consist of people with engineering degrees, mathematics degrees, computer science degrees, physics degrees. All of these people didn't just get their PHD and jump into quantum computing. They worked in their field for multiple years. How are you so daft to not recognize this? You want us to summarize, ALL of these works from multiple different people from multiple different field of study.
It wasn't an exaggeration. He asked for a comprehensive work, and as stated above that's a lot of fields.
