After a short introduction to quantum physics (only the stuff we need for programming), we’ll jump right in:\r\n\r\nWe will program three small examples on IBM’s freely accessible Quantum platform, illustrating both the limitations and the potential of quantum computers.\r\n\r\nThe workshop is suitable for absolute beginners — no prior knowledge of any programming language is required.\r\n\r\nAfter the workshop, you will have a solid understanding of how such a machine works - and whether we really need to start worrying about Q-Day already.\r\nPlease bring your laptop. You can sign up for IBM Quantum in advance (https://quantum.cloud.ibm.com/), but it’s also possible to participate without an account using the quantum simulator.","schedule_start":"2025-12-28T22:30:00+01:00","schedule_duration":"01:20:00","schedule_end":"2025-12-28T23:50:00+01:00"}
