    I don't know if this is useful information to you or not, but as someone with only a physics 101 background who is struggling to understand quantum computers I would super appreciate a video from you on how qubits store more information than bits in classical computers if when measured they must always put out the same quantity of information as classical bits. Does your algorithm video cover that, or perhaps might you make a video on that in the future?
    Thank you for taking the time to make these videos, you are a clear communicator and a great teacher.

      Thanks, you are correct that this will be the backbone of the algo wideo, yes.
      I can give you a short idea for the explanation though: a single qubit is in a superposition of 0 and 1. To describe this state, you must give the amplitudes for these two states, so 2 numbers (2 bits).
      A 2-qubit system can be either in the state 00, 01, 10 or 11, or any superposition of those 4. Hence, you need 4 numbers to describe it (4 bits).
      You can go on playing this game and you will see that for N qubits, the system in theory holds 2^N bits of information.

      ​@@physicsbutawesomeRight, but how does this solve impossible problems?

      @@Michael-ij6kg In itself, it doesn't. But it turns out you can use these rules to construct algorithms that can achieve very specific things very efficiently... but it's a longer, more complicated story, that's why it'll be a separate video.

    Keep up these PSA's! I appreciated watching. Thx

    Very interesting, maybe consider doing some more, detailed videos on this topic.

      Thanks! I will certainly expand the topic with videos on quantum algorithms and quantum entanglement.
      I will also kick off a series dedicated to quantum mechanics, where I plan on revisiting things like these in more detail.
