1. Calculate the square of the 3p_z wave function for the H-atom at the following points in x,z plane: r from 0 to 9 Angstrom Units in steps of 0.5 Angstrom Units, and theta from 0 to 90 deg in steps of 5 deg. There will be 361 points – if you are doing it manually you may distribute the work so that each one calculates about a dozen points. Make a contour plot of this function. You may make use of symmetry to complete the plot in the four quadrants.

2. Write a short essay (not more than 4 pages) on quantum computing. You may use the following lead article.
