    Relative phase: the invisible engine of quantum

    Probabilities cannot see it, the next gate can. Global vs relative phase, and the experiment that makes the invisible visible.

    One circuit, two IBM Quantum error codes: 1506 and 1603

    20 identical submissions, 11 of one code and 9 of the other. Which one you get decides whether IBM tells you what is wrong.

    The tensor product: why 10 qubits means 1024 numbers

    One humble operation builds the space that every multi-qubit state lives in, and explains the exponential. Two qubits in, four amplitudes out.

    I could not find a place to practise Qiskit, so I built one

    Every Qiskit tutorial I found was written for a version that no longer runs. So I built twenty exercises that check your answer by inspecting the objects your code produces.

    Entanglement, explained without the spooky

    The Bell state in two lines of code, what correlated really means, and why none of it sends messages faster than light.
