19.1 & 19.2 Quantum Techniques in Cryptography

  • The most interesting part of this section was reading about quantum mechanics. I don't really know anything about it but I found it interesting to learn a little. I also thought that it was cool to see why in the experiment using two filters blocked all light but using three filters let 1/8 of the light in.
  • The hardest part to understand was why Bob has 25% chance of measuring the incorrect value. It seems to me that it should be more like 25% chance of measuring the correct value.

  1. Good Job Preston! Keep up the good work. And if you're teacher is looking at this, they must know that this is the best blog I follow. I look forward to these posts.

    I also tried to learn about this concept but this is the toughest topic and I got confused in the middle. I think that I need to do some more research about cryptography to learn it completely.
