This is yet one more introductory course on quantum computing. Here I concentrate more on how the mathematical model of quantum computing grows out from physics and experiment, while omitting most of the formulas (when possible) and rigorous proofs.

Reviews
TOP REVIEWS FROM QUANTUM COMPUTING. LESS FORMULAS - MORE UNDERSTANDING
I like everything about this course except the title, there are many formulas. But really well explained, I enjoyed it a lot and I think I learned something. I recommend it.
I really appreciate the way course was delivered. Great, mind opening examples supported with precise language and comments.
A very nice introduction to the subject! Now I will take a harder course. Thank you!
Thanks for very good and conceptual course. [Shadi, PhD]
