physicist who discovered the structure of that.
And he talks about how quantum mechanics is a very
counterintuitive theory. And anyone who's not
shocked by quantum mechanics has not understood it.
Another way of understanding this quote is that,
if you really want to deeply understand quantum
mechanics, then you have to grapple with the quantum
counterintuitive aspects of the theory. And so for those of
you who haven't really studied quantum mechanics before,
this way of approaching it, this emphasis on the one simple
systems, which illustrate the most counterintuitive
aspects of the theory, this might be the right way to
start studying the subject. Umesh Vazirani (Ft. University of California, Berkeley) – Introduction

of the course, which is an introduction to quantum mechanics.
Now the way we'll study quantum mechanics in this course
is in terms of a very simple building block, which comes
from quantum computation, which is that of a qubit.
So just as a bit, it's the simplest representation
of information in the classical world. A qubit is the
simplest quantum system that we can think of. And describing
quantum mechanics, the basic principles of quantum mechanics,
in terms of qubits, greatly simplifies the presentation. Umesh Vazirani (Ft. University of California, Berkeley) – Introduction

I'm Umesh Vazirani at UC Berkeley.
And I'm delighted to welcome you to this course
on Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computation.
I'm sure many of you know that quantum computation
starts with this remarkable discovery that quantum
systems are exponentially powerful. So a major goal
of quantum computation is to harness this exponential power
to solve interesting computation problems. So in this
overview I want to tell you about what you can expect
to learn from this course, and how this course is organized. Umesh Vazirani (Ft. University of California, Berkeley) – Introduction
