This book provides the foundations for building software for the quantum age, and applying quantum computing to real-world business and research problems. Constantin Gonciulea and Charlee Stefanski lay out the math and programming techniques needed to apply quantum solutions to real challenges like sampling from classically intractable probability distributions and large-scale optimization problems.  Developers will learn which quantum algorithms and patterns apply to different types of problems and how to build their first quantum applications. All the simulator code can be easily converted to run on real quantum hardware.
