Monads in Functional Programming

The idea of doing a computation within a special context isn't unique to quantum computing. Functional programming has a concept called the monad that does something similar. This is how it works: you have an input value and you want to perform a sequence of calculations within a certain special …

Physical Representation of Quantum Computer

Even in quantum computers, many calculations are done using traditional circuits. What usually happens is that a bunch of calculations are done using traditional microprocessors and then there will be some hard algorithm that needs to run, things like prime factorisation or brute force search. There are the algorithms that …
