19.3 Shor's Algorithm

  • I found it very interesting to learn more about what a quantum computer is. Although I feel like I still don't understand it, it was cool to learn more about it.
  • I understand that Shor's Algorithm says that if we find the period, we can use that to factor n. But I was pretty confused on how that works and how the use of a quantum computer would help in finding the period.
