What you'll learn:
- Advanced Math Techniques for Quantum Computing
This course covers the Math you need to begin learning about quantum algorithms and applications of quantum computing.
This is primarily a Math course. It doesn't cover any quantum algorithms or applications. This course teaches you the Math you need to begin learning about quantum algorithms. Quantum algorithms will be covered in later courses.
Almost everything in this course is explained with rigorous proofs. After you complete this course, quantum physics will not seem so mysterious.

HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM THIS COURSE
The material presented here is significantly more advanced than my previous courses on QC.
To get the most from this course, you might need to rewind and repeat each lesson 2-3 times.
It is a good idea to pause the lessons frequently and follow along with the Math.
Give yourself breaks between lessons. After you complete a lesson, wait a day, or at least an hour before moving on to the next lesson.
