Hi Cetin,

Thanks for your contact info.

Here is some information about the things we talked about last Friday.
Books that I would recommend on quantum computing (in increasing order of sophistication):
* Mermin:
http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Computer-Science-David-Mermin/dp/0521876583
* Kaye, Laflamma and Mosca:
http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Quantum-Computing-Phillip-Kaye/dp/019857049X
* Nielsen and Chuang:
http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Computation-Information-Michael-Nielsen/dp/0521635039
* Another one that deals mostly with quantum information theory is Loepp and Wootters:
http://www.amazon.com/Protecting-Information-Classical-Correction-Cryptography/dp/0521534763

An old website of my graduate course on quantum computation is here:

You can buy your own quantum random number generator from the company id Quantique

And yes there are gambling websites that use this for real.
