Komputer kwantowy. Programowanie, algorytmy, kod
Eric R. Johnston, Nicholas Harrigan, Mercedes Gimeno-Segovia
Komputery kwantowe nie są już tylko urządzeniami teoretycznymi. Nie są też futurystycznym monstrum, obcą maszyną, która zamieni całe istniejące oprogramowanie w jakąś jego niezrozumiałą alternatywę. Komputery kwantowe (QPU) staną się raczej radykalnym rozszerzeniem możliwości współczesnej informatyki, które pozwoli nam rozwiązać problemy dotychczas nierozwiązywalne. Istnieją ważne zadania, z którymi QPU potrafią sobie świetnie poradzić, a których rozwiązanie byłoby niemożliwe na jakimkolwiek standardowym urządzeniu komputerowym. Z drugiej strony z wieloma standardowymi obliczeniami QPU nie radzi sobie dużo lepiej niż najzwyklejszy laptop. Z punktu widzenia programisty zatem stanowi rodzaj koprocesora o ciekawych możliwościach. Oto przewodnik po wspaniałym, nieodkrytym jeszcze do końca świecie informatyki kwantowej. Aby ją zrozumieć, niepotrzebny jest doktorat z fizyki kwantowej i wyższej matematyki. Dzięki tej książce opanujesz zestaw pojęć niezbędnych do zrozumienia działania QPU, dowiesz się, jakie problemy mogą rozwiązać aplikacje QPU i nauczysz się korzystać z narzędzi do pisania programów dla QPU. Zaprezentowane tu koncepcje są bogato ilustrowane przykładami, które można łatwo uruchomić na darmowym symulatorze QCEngine. Istnieje też możliwość korzystania z fizycznych QPU (kilka prototypów QPU udostępniono w chmurze). Interesującą, choć nieco trudniejszą częścią przewodnika jest rozdział poświęcony zastosowaniu obliczeń kwantowych w uczeniu maszynowym. W tej książce: koncepcje programowania procesorów kwantowych kubity, superpozycja i teleportacje kwantowe prymitywy QPU wzmacnianie amplitudy, kwantowa transformacja Fouriera i szacowanie fazy przykłady aplikacji QPU QPU: zrób pierwszy krok ku technologii przyszłości!

Learn Blockchain Programming with JavaScript begins by giving you a clear understanding of what blockchain technology is. You’ll then set up an environment to build your very own blockchain and you’ll add various functionalities to it. By adding functionalities to your blockchain such as the ability to mine new blocks, create transactions, and secure your blockchain through a proof-of-work you’ll gain an in-depth understanding of how blockchain technology functions.As you make your way through the chapters, you’ll learn how to build an API server to interact with your blockchain and how to host your blockchain on a decentralized network. You’ll also build a consensus algorithm and use it to verify data and keep the entire blockchain network synchronized. In the concluding chapters, you’ll finish building your blockchain prototype and gain a thorough understanding of why blockchain technology is so secure and valuable. By the end of this book, you'll understand how decentralized blockchain networks function and why decentralization is such an important feature for securing a blockchain.

Functional programming allows developers to divide programs into smaller, reusable components that ease the creation, testing, and maintenance of software as a whole. Combined with the power of C++, you can develop robust and scalable applications that fulfill modern day software requirements. This book will help you discover all the C++ 17 features that can be applied to build software in a functional way.The book is divided into three modules—the first introduces the fundamentals of functional programming and how it is supported by modern C++. The second module explains how to efficiently implement C++ features such as pure functions and immutable states to build robust applications. The last module describes how to achieve concurrency and apply design patterns to enhance your application’s performance. Here, you will also learn to optimize code using metaprogramming in a functional way.By the end of the book, you will be familiar with the functional approach of programming and will be able to use these techniques on a daily basis.
