Quantum computers, which promise to revolutionise everything from chemistry to cancer research, aren\u2019t quite ready for the mainstream yet \u2013 but that hasn\u2019t prevented the emergence of a new breed of quantum software developers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWriting a program for a quantum computer used to mean getting a PhD,\u201d says Lov Grover<\/a>. He would know \u2013 his Grover\u2019s algorithm, created in 1996 for searching a database with a quantum computer, was one of the first pieces of quantum software. At that time, there were no quantum computers that could actually run it, and the work\u2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
