Publisher's Synopsis
In a world where quantum computing stands at the crossroads of computation and quantum mechanics, Quantum Computing and Information: A Scaffolding Approach offers a meticulously designed pathway for mastering this transformative technology. As part of an educational series, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for beginning graduate students, senior undergraduates, and anyone invested in understanding the quantum computational landscape. The book follows a "scaffolding approach," inspired by pedagogical theories from Lev Vygotsky and Jerome Bruner, guiding readers through complex subject matter without overwhelming them. Through the gradual introduction of concepts, layered reinforcement, and practical exercises, the book facilitates deep learning.
