About

In this session, we’ll explore the fascinating world of quantum computing—what it is, how it works, and why it matters. We’ll break down key concepts like qubits, superposition, and entanglement in an easy-to-understand way. Learners can expect an interactive discussion with real-world examples of quantum applications in cryptography, AI, and materials science. We'll also cover how quantum computing differs from classical computing and the challenges ahead in making it scalable. Come curious, and leave with a new perspective on the future of technology!

Hi, I’m Pranav S, a passionate high school junior with a deep interest in computer science. Ever since I started coding, I’ve been fascinated by how technology shapes the world around us. Whether it’s solving problems through algorithms or building creative projects, I love exploring the endless possibilities that computer science offers. I’ve spent a lot of time learning programming languages like Python, JavaScript, and exploring various topics such as algorithms, data structures, and web development. I believe in the power of knowledge-sharing, which is why I enjoy teaching others what I’ve learned. I’m excited to help others dive into the world of coding, understand the fundamentals, and spark the same curiosity that drives me every day. Through teaching, I aim to inspire my peers to embrace technology and problem-solving skills. I’m always eager to learn more and improve my own coding skills while helping others along the way.
