So we now know the basic philosophy of a quantum computer, it is really interesting that looking at data restricts the output. Something that is obvious when you think about it, but I still didn't think of it before this chapter. I really liked the clock analogy in the article you asked us to read. It makes me want to buy an analogue clock and corkboard.
I still don't know what a quantum fourier analysis is, but I suppose that that falls under the statment in the book that we would have to trust that the quantum computer can do what the book says it can.
So, since the book didn't really describe this material in any real depth, what are we expected to know about this? I don't think that we could use the quantum method to actually solve anything, the information to do that isn't in the book. Is it like AES where we just know the name of the steps?
