Need Some Help Regarding Quantum Computing

[oliviajackson]

Hello eveyone,

I am inspired by the up-to-date subject of quantum computing and its potential to change how we process information. However, as a beginner in quantum mechanics and computing, I am struggling to understand the complexity.

Could someone please explain the basics of quantum computing, its present uses, quantum algorithms, and limitations?

If anyone can provide some resources and share their experience for my better understanding.

I greatly appreciate your support.

Thanks.

It’s extremely expensive still and requires extreme cooling, so is only in use in a tiny handful of research and intelligence applications, but it allows for a massive capacity for computation at speeds previously unachievable. 

Your question is super broad, and you may need to be more specific to get better answers. If you just need a lay persons intro, perhaps this will help:
