Exposing Abstract Mathematical Structures to Aspiring Quantum Computing Pros

Abstract:We are so used to arithmetic, that it doesn't seem abstract.But there is a long history of extending ordinary whole numbers with fractions, negative numbers, irrational numbers, imaginary numbers... As the number systems flourished, mathematical abstractions like vectors, matrices, sets, groups, and rings grew further away from direct experience. But some of these abstractions became the foundation of Quantum Mechanics.
