Study Notes
Quantum Computing Basics
- Quantum computers are smaller and more energy-efficient than supercomputers.
- They use qubits (CUE-bits) to perform multidimensional quantum algorithms, unlike classical computers that use bits.
- Qubits can compute numerous probabilities at once, dealing with multiple problems simultaneously.
Superposition
- A qubit can be in a state of superposition, representing a combination of all possible configurations.
- Groups of qubits in superposition can create complex, multidimensional computational spaces.
- This enables complex problems to be represented in new ways.
Applications of Quantum Computing
- Simulation
- Optimization
- Cryptography
- Machine learning
- Data search
