Diving Into Q#
summary
Q# presents concrete claims and tools: a Microsoft quantum development kit with a 30 qubit simulator on a laptop (about 40 qubits in cloud), a runtime that targets hardware in a 15 millikelvin fridge, and language features that matter — strong typing, adjoint auto-generation, partial application and qubit reuse to cut required qubits. Demos show teleportation implemented and optimized; the talk argues Shor-scale RSA needs thousands of qubits (≈4000) while useful chemistry or optimization may appear around 150–250 qubits.
