    Quantum computing uses quantum-mechanical phenomena like superposition and entanglement to perform computations. Quantum computers are able to solve certain problems much faster than classical computers and can be used for applications like quantum simulation, cryptography, and quantum search. If Nigeria harnesses quantum computing, it could help speed up technological processes and facilitate rapid development by reducing the computation time required for things like modeling chemical reactions, breaking encryption, and searching large datasets.

    QUANTUM COMPUTING:

    How Nigeria can harness its potentials for rapid development


    What is quantum computing?

     Quantum computing is the use


    of quantum-mechanical phenomena such
    as superposition and entanglement to
    perform computation. Computers that
    perform quantum computations are
    known as quantum computers.
    Why quantum computers?

     Quantum computers are able to quickly solve


    certain problems that no classical computer could
    solve in any feasible amount of time—a feat
    known as “quantum supremacy.“
     The intent of quantum computers is to be a
    different tool to solve different problems, not to
    replace classical computers.
    How does it work

     Classical computers manipulate ones and zeroes to crunch through operations, but
    quantum computers use quantum bits or qubits. Just like classical computers, quantum
    computers use ones and zeros, but qubits have a third state called “superposition” that
    allows them to represent a one or a zero at the same time. Instead of analyzing a one or a
    zero sequentially, superposition allows two qubits in superposition to represent four
    scenarios at the same time. Therefore, the time it takes to crunch a data set is significantly
    reduced.

    Applications

     Quantum simulation: Quantum computers are useful to scientists for conducting virtual experiments. This is
    known as quantum simulations. We could model chemical reactions—because interactions among atoms in a
    chemical reaction is a quantum process. 
     Cryptography: Quantum computers will be able to read secret messages communicated over the internet using
    the current technologies (such as RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and other cryptographic protocols that are based on the
    hardness of number-theoretic problems like factoring and discrete logarithm).
     Quantum search: Another use of quantum computers is searching huge amounts of data. Let’s say that we have a
    large phone book, ordered alphabetically by individual names (and not by phone numbers). If we wanted to find
    the person who has the phone number 6097348000, we would have to go through the whole phone book and look
    at every entry. For a phone book with one million phone numbers, it could take one million steps. In 1996, Lov
    Grover from Bell Labs discovered that a quantum computer would be able to do the same task with one thousand
    steps instead of one million. More generally, quantum computers would be useful whenever we have to find
    something in a large amount of data: “a needle in a haystack”.
     Quantum supremacy: John Preskill introduced the term quantum supremacy to refer to the hypothetical speedup
    advantage that a quantum computer would have over a classical computer in a certain field.
    Summary

     Quantum computing helps to reduce the


    computation time for technological
    processes which in turn helps to speed up
    these processes thereby facilitating
    development and growth in all aspects of
    our nation.
