You don't need to know quantum theory necessarily, but you will need to know some maths. Specifically linear algebra.

There are a few youtube courses on linear algebra

For a casual set of video: - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZHQObOWTQDPD3MizzM2xVFit...

For a more formal approach:

And the corresponding open courseware

- https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/18-06-linear-algebra-spring-2010...

Linear algebra done right comes highly recommended

- https://linear.axler.net/



+1 for 18-06 and Axler. Another, more concrete, option (not sure how much it will help with quantum theory) is Stephen Boyd's "Introduction to Applied Linear Algebra" available online here:

Isn't there a Python library that abstracts most of it away with a couple of gigantic classes with incompatible dependencies?
