Quantum Computing is regarded as one of the most *disruptive technology* as well as *emerging technology*[1,2]. This field has attracted a lot of computational startups and investments in the recent years[3, 4, 5]. With such a pretty new field to learn and work on lacks some material/online courses to self learn Quantum Computing from Computer Science and Engineering perspective. So, the question focuses on the good quality resources to/for:

1. Self-Learning Quantum Computing to build Quantum Computing Simulations on a digital Computer.
2. Development of software, programming of such computer systems.
3. Hardware and Physical implementation from the perspective of CS Engineers.
4. Deployment and Integration (hybrid systems) with Digital Computer.
5. Related areas of disruption of cryptography, internet, data, AI, etc.

*The answers may be answered in the forms of links/resources to - scientific articles, papers, online courses/videos and Books that can aid or teach self learner Quantum Computing.*

The answer written here has been referenced from some of the leading Quantum Computing research Journals or Publications. The interested readers are advised to visit their website in order to get the rough idea of research trend and field segments before self reading Quantum Computing.

The publications/journals include - *IEEE Quantum*, *Quantum Information Processing* by *Springer*, *Journal of Quantum Computing* By *Tech Science Press*, *Quantum Journal* and *Quantum Computing* by *IOP* [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. Trends were mainly picked up from Google Scholar, ArXiv Open Access Repos and Online Courses by Reputed Universities.

The interested enthusiast may start from the notes/cheatsheets before moving to books/online course videos.

## Methodology

Books were given preference over paper as it can be more helpful for a self learner or anyone needing assistance/help in the field. The main books are solemnly chosen on the basis of higher citations (quality and research impact), whereas reference books on the basis of citations (atleast more than 50 for the given topic) as well as date of publication (newer material given more preference). The order of listing is on the basis of *citations only!*.

The answer includes video material/courses as well as papers/cheatsheets that'd be helpful for a beginner in an *arbitrary order and not in any preference!*
