Quantum Computing

Quantum computing is a branch of computer science and engineering that harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to perform computations. Unlike classical computers that use bits as the smallest unit of information (either 0 or 1), quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist in multiple states simultaneously thanks to quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement. This allows quantum computers to process and analyze vast combinations of possibilities exponentially faster than classical computers for certain complex problems. The development of quantum computing involves manipulating qubits to execute algorithms that could potentially revolutionize fields such as cryptography, optimization, and simulations of molecular and material behavior.Qubit | Superposition | Entanglement | Decoherence | Quantum algorithms.
