This short tutorial describes a simple proof of strong subadditivity due to Petz [Rep. on Math. Phys. 23 (1), 57--65 (1986)]. It assumes only knowledge of elementary linear algebra and quantum mechanics.7 pages, resubmitted version of a tutorial paper submitted to Quantum Information and ComputationQuantum PhysicsA simple proof of the strong subadditivity inequalitytext
