We know that Shor’s algorithm can factor integers on a quantum computer exponentially faster than any known classical algorithm, and that there are problems, such as the simulation of physical systems as posed by Richard Feynman in the 1980s, that quantum computers can solve that would take classical computers more than the lifetime of the Read more
As the community of Q# developers grows, we’re always looking for new ways to make you more productive. In this month’s Quantum Development Kit update, we’re bringing you an exciting new feature to enhance our developer experience, as well as two new Quantum Katas. We are happy to introduce Q# code completion, a highly anticipated feature in the Read more
In July 2019, we updated the Quantum Development Kit (QDK) to be fully open-source and invited the community to help shape the developer tools that will empower users to solve some of the world’s biggest problems. We’re excited to highlight some great community contributions in the last month. Our Quantum Katas have been a big Read more
This July we’re celebrating the first anniversary of the Katas; let’s look at the how the project grew and evolved during this year. Read more
At Microsoft, our Quantum mission is to develop and deploy the world’s most scalable, secure, quantum computing system and to support a rich ecosystem of domain experts, developers, and researchers to solve today’s most challenging problems. Read more
This month’s Quantum Development Kit update includes a new contribution to our chemistry library from our partner 1QBit. In today’s 0.7 update, we also introduce a new numerics library, Q# language features, and further expansion of our Quantum Katas with community contributions. Read more
With the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit, getting started with quantum development is easy. Now we’re helping to make it even easier: we’ve partnered with the team of educators at Brilliant.org to teach you about quantum computing in a new way. Read more
Willis Towers Watson (NASDAQ: WLTW)—a leading global advisory, broking, and solutions company—has long used complex mathematical models to deliver great results for clients and turn risk into growth. However, some problems are still so challenging that they remain intractable with even the most advanced contemporary computational solutions. Because of that, Willis Towers Watson has Read more
Our quantum team made several presentations during Build, ranging from explanations of what quantum computing is, to how to program today for tomorrow’s quantum machines, to using modern developer tools to make programming for quantum easier. Read more
With this month’s Quantum Development Kit release, we’re focused on empowering our users to get engaged with quantum development. The new release makes it easier to learn quantum computing with the quantum katas notebooks. Read more
We are excited to announce that this summer we will be open-sourcing the Quantum Development Kit, including our Q# compiler and quantum simulators. Read more
Our annual developer event, Microsoft Build, will take place May 7–9, 2019, at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle. The event invites developers, engineers, programmers, and all-around tech creators to gather around emerging technological concepts, including quantum computing. Read more
