The Importance of Uncomputation: Is Quantum Mechanics Reversible?
Constrained by Nature Quantum Mechanics is reversible and this is what we observe when we study the evolution of quantum states and see that information is not lost and that there are no 2 input states that will evolve to the same output state given a particular Hamiltonian. This makes Quantum Computing really special both […]

Quantum Programming 101: Z Gate with code
Introduction Unlike the gates such as the Pauli X or CNOT gate it can be difficult for beginners to understand what the Z-gate actually does and why it is used. In this tutorial we will explore the Z-gate including what it does and how to implement it in Python and Qiskit. WHAT IS THE Z-GATE? […]
