You have such a knack for explaining things clearly. Awesome job!

[@adaircampos4240]

This is the first Qiskit installation tutorial that didn't give me any problem at all. Thanks a lot for the material, it's really helpful.

[@MyCodingDiarie]

I can't believe I didn't find your channel sooner. Subscribed!

[@quantum_parody]

i was almost stuck thanks to AI but again you succintly brewed nice installation setup ive loved this!

[@omarmujahid1816]

Hello! thanks for the video

[@makkisaud1972]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂

[@LukasSmith827]

very nice! please I hope there's some coverage on fully local simulators during this series 🙏

[@DerekWangIBM]

We'll do a small example with local simulators through Primitives next episode, but we'll be focusing on running on real quantum computers.

[@ribamar7]

Great installation tutorial! Thanks!
Question I have is regarding certification. I was studying for the "IBM Certified Associate Developer - Quantum Computation using Qiskit v0.2X". Now that qiskit 1.0 is released, should we expect a new certification to be available soon?

[@qiskit]

yes! it's on its way and is coming very soon.

[@RajIndia31415]

Great! I had my first Quantum program up and running.

[@acQUANtance]

Even after installing miniconda on my windows PC, do i still have to install python as vscode is instructing to install python

[@user-to4nb9mi3o]

while running line 3 ......it says "cannot import name 'ValidationInfo' from 'pydantic' ..pls help🙏

[@jordisanzmoros7534]

Same error here :(

[@user-we5gf8cc4x]

Thanks for your teaching! But I can not import qiskit_ibm_runtime,and it says that No module name''qiskit_ibm_runtime' although I have installed the package successfully!what is the reason?

[@DerekWangIBM]

Make sure you've installed qiskit_ibm_runtime into the environment you're executing your Python code in. Make sure to follow the instructions from the video closely--start an environment, `conda install pip`, pip to install packages within that environment, and then use that environment in your Jupyter notebook (after restarting your Python environment kernel in your Jupyter notebook).

Qiskit 1.0 installed 👏

[@birincimammadzada]

thank you!
“please hire me as an intern at IBM” :)

[@devgupta6474]

How do I install aer for backend simulations

[@abiuniverse]

What about using a simulator (QASM?) instead of the IBM cloud hardware?

[@DerekWangIBM]

We'll do a small example with local simulators through Primitives next episode, but we'll be focusing on running on real quantum computers.

[@HussainShaik-hl9cu]

Do we have to execute 'conda install pip', ' pip install qiskit', 'pip install jupyter' everytime we start a machine (windows)?

[@DerekWangIBM]

No, you shouldn't need to. Conda is the package manager that needs to be installed just once. Within Conda you can have multiple virtual environments. Install pip, qiskit, and jupyter only once per virtual environment (and update as necessary)

[@krishnageethakaruppasamy8493]

Thank you.

[@sentient314]

What do I do if my country is banned from the website?

[@shrenikharan]

how can I enable the environment indicator which says (base) or (cwq) before each line?

[@DerekWangIBM]

Make sure to activate your environment. So in Terminal, type 'conda activate name-of-your-environment'. Then you should get '(name-of-your-environment)' before each line

[@ExistenceUniversity]

Why didn't you follow the instructions on the website!! So frustrating!!

[@nosferatu5500]

I cant execute QiskitRuntimeService.save_account........, it says AccountAlreadyExistsError

[@Abhigyan103]

It only needs to be run once, after that, you can just remove that code

[@sai_343]

Waiting
