In this chapter, we will walk through a number of fundamental quantum algorithms. We call these algorithms the canon as they were all developed in the early years of quantum computing and were the first to establish provable computational speedups with quantum computers. We discussed most of these algorithms at a high level in chapter 2; we will now walk through them in a more detailed manner. A number of these algorithms require a quantum computer that is still in the future, but by analyzing them now we can deepen our understanding of what will be possible. Additionally, variants of these algorithms can be used to prove advantages with near-term quantum computers in the noiseless [47] and even noisy [48] regimes.
