Quantum computers will certainly impact cryptography where there's
heavy reliance on factoring primes and discrete logarithms.
I am really interested in the problem of factoring primes. Will a
quantum computer help?
Of course, the mathematicians will add (even unconsciously) “into”
between factoring and primes :)
Perhaps mathematicians lack a sense of the ridiculous....or a sense of
humour!

Actually, if Bruce is really interested in factoring primes, I can lend
him some real numbers.
