Waiting for qiskit to be compatible with Python v3.11...

Qiskit 0.39.2 is the first release to support Python v3.11. The associated PR was recently merged.

Can you please rebase to the current master and then edit https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Python/blob/master/requirements.txt#L11 to remove the qiskit; python_version < "3.11" next to qiskit?

Sorry about the mess. I messed up the rebase initially. I've accepted your suggested change and removed the python version restriction from qiskit.

* Added BB84 algorithm.

* Function name lowercase + imports fix

I thought uppercase was appropriate because they're initials.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Update quantum/bb84.py
