Quantum mechanics is inherently probabilistic. When you measure a quantum system the result in general cannot be known beforehand. All that quantum mechanics can tell you is what the possibilities are and how probable it is to observe each possibility. Learning the fundamentals of Probability theory allows you to understand and interpret the output of a quantum computer.
