the best beginner courses are built for people with a general maths background you do not need a physics or computer science degree to start courses from ibm xanadu and qiskit are specifically designed for this audience what maths do i need for beginner courses basic algebra and probability for intermediate work linear algebra vectors and matrices is essential most beginner courses teach the required maths as they go so you do not need to study it all upfront how long does it take to learn the basics most learners get a solid conceptual foundation in 4 8 weeks at 30 60 minutes per day getting to the point of writing basic quantum circuits takes another 4 6 weeks should i start with python or quantum theory start with quantum theory first just the concepts not the maths then add python and qiskit once you understand what you are trying to compute most beginner courses follow this sequence naturally what is the difference between qiskit cirq and pennylane qiskit is ibm s framework the most widely used with free ibm hardware access cirq is google s framework well suited for near term algorithms on google hardware pennylane from xanadu is the best choice if you want to
