Quantum leaps are discrete beacuse they behave like stationary waves.
Here we have 3 qubits on a single saxophone!

His book "Mathematica" is a real eye-opener. David Bessis describes accurately and vividly the way we perceive and manipulate mathematical objects. Colleagues who read it also felt he put into words what they had not been able to formulate about the mathematical process. Highly recommended.
The mathematician David Bessis believes that mathematical skill is not innate, but learned. “Genius is not an essence. It’s a state. It’s a state that you build by doing a certain job.”
Mathematical Thinking Isn’t What You Think It Is | Quanta Magazine
The mathematician David Bessis claims that everyone is capable of, and can benefit greatly from, mathematical thinking.

Who knew? A quote from David Sulzer’s Math Music and Mind on how harmonics in music inspired de Broglie’s view of quanta.

It's easier to understand quantum algorithms if you think of qubits as waves with an amplitude and a phase. Come play with our music installation u-paris.fr/sciences/%C3...

So What Do We Know QC To Be Good For?
- Simulating quantum physics and chemistry
- Breaking current public-key encryption (RSA, DH, ECC)
- Eventually, modest (square-root) speedups from Grover
- We’ll have to get lucky for most other applications!
