I found this book again that I read in preparation for the undergrad quantum computing course I took at Newcastle University two years ago. Highly recommend for anyone interested in quantum but doesn’t know where to start.

Most institutions that organise these conferences do provide ways for the modification and verification of paper structure that usually require..
