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.
