Quantum computers are expected to change the world by providing exponential speed-up in solving some very difficult problems. In this tutorial, we will discuss the fundamental principles of quantum computing algorithms to understand how a qubit is different from a classical bit. Important concepts such as superposition, entanglement, quantum gate, error correction, and no-cloning theorem will be discussed. After this talk, the audience will appreciate the power and also the limitations of quantum computing.
