QSchrödinger
QSchrödinger School is an initiative. It aims to teach Quantum computing with IBM quantum software(Qiskit).
QSchrödinger school was founded in July 2021 by Hamza Kamel. The school has students from over three countries Egypt, Morocco, and the USA
أول مرة الQuantum باللغة العربية.

محاضرة اليوم هي عبارة عن شرح ما هو علم الكوانتم، وهنتعرف فيها ايه هي Qiskit اللي هي جزء أساسي من برمجة الكوانتم.
شاركونا معلوماتهم عن الكوانتم و لو حابين تسألوا اي اسئلة قولولنا في الكومنتات.
شكرا لدعمكم

What is Qiskit?
In Arabic( العَرَبيَّة ) and English
Our first In-person introductory session for Quantum computing with the founder of QSchrodinger School Hamza Kamel and Troy University , Troy University Computer Science Club.
Special thanks to Oluwaseun Omotayo the president of Computer science club, and Mariam Attia for her efforts to make it happen.
MEET THE FOUNDERS OF QSCHRODINGER SCHOOL Of QUANTUM COMPUTING
Hamza Kamel is currently studying data science and computer science at the Canadian International College. He graduated from the coding school with Qbit by Qbit sponsored by IBM Quantum as a quantum computing student. He got an internship at Qiskit summer school for quantum machine learning. Moreover, he is now studying machine learning with quantum computing. Hamza accomplished the IBM quantum Africa Challenge 2021. The challenge focused on applications of the field of Quantum Computing to solve problems in Africa in many fields, like optimization, finance, chemistry, and meditation. He is extremely interested in education and has a great power to teach and gladly share the knowledge he has gained.

What is Quantum Computing ?
The future is nonlinear, the future is quantum.
It comes as no surprise that cats have a significant role in the evolution of technology
And today we would like to thank one cat in particular, Schrödinger's cat.
Schrodinger had an interesting thought experiment: a cat, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source is placed in a sealed box. If Geiger's counter detects radioactivity, the flask is shattered, releasing the poison, which kills the cat. Until the moment that we open the box the cat is both alive and dead at the same time! And that is because the life of the cat depends on a subatomic action that may or may not happen. Now this -very unethical and disturbing- thought experiment played a significant role in quantum computing, as it highlighted the counterintuitive nature of quantum superpositions- quite different from the super confusion you are feeling right now- and superposition is a crucial part of the quantum computer, allow me to elaborate.
In a classical computer a bit has two values either a one or a zero. But in a quantum computer a qubit or a quantum bit prior to measurement has both the values one, zero, and everything in between Yes! Both! Amazing right?
Now this gives the quantum computer the ability to process information exponentially faster than the classical computer, to further explain this let us think of an example, if you have a database of one thousand students' names and you want to search one name, the classical computer will go through all the names one by one, and in the worst-case scenario it would take 999 tries. But the quantum computer will go through all the names at once, so if it takes the classical computer the time (t) to find the name, the quantum computer will only use sqrt(t).
Another thing that is special about the quantum computer is that the qubits can “communicate” with each other no matter how far they are -literally galaxies apart- in phenomena that albert Einstein himself called “spooky action at a distance” and the spooky thing about this is that this happens instantaneously, that means that the information can be transferred faster than the speed of light.
But the challenge lies in how many qubits we can entangle, until now the highest number has been (64).
Some applications of quantum computing include but are not limited to.
Encryption: The RSA encryption is heavily relied on by major companies, Banks and even Governments. What makes the encryption hard to break is that factoring numbers higher than 2048 bit can take decades. But a quantum computer of 20 million Qubit –estimated to happen in the next 20 years- can break that encryption in only 8 hours. Which is why those establishments have begun their investments in quantum computers.
Medicine :Quantum computing might bring supersonic drug design, in silico clinical trials with virtual humans simulated 'live', full-speed whole genome sequencing and analytics,
Quantum mechanics and physics: we discussed the direct life applications, but we did not discuss how a quantum computer can be our way of understanding quantum physics, maybe we do not have to be satisfied with just the classical solution of problems anymore, maybe we can escape the limitations of our own minds and begin to understand everything and explain everything by quantum mechanics.
“Quantum computing is poised to disrupt industries considering its burgeoning quantum leaps. It's either you join the race and pave the way for others to thrive on the technology or step aside for the game-changers.”
― Emmanuel Apets
“We are currently at the start of a second quantum revolution,” said Dr. Ian McAndrew, Dean of Doctorate Programs @ Capitol Technology University. “The first quantum revolution gave us new rules that govern physical reality. The second quantum revolution will take these rules and use them to develop new technologies and offer the next level of opportunities.”

Quantum Computers Imagine a device that its internal temperature is seven times colder than the north pole, which can reach −273.14°C; what we have mentioned is the quantum computer.
