Introduction to Quantum
Computing
Quantum computing is a revolutionary approach to computation that
Utilizes the principles of quantum mechanics to perform certain types
of calculations much more efficiently than classical computers. Unlike
classical computers, which use bits to represent either a 0 or a 1,
quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist in a
superposition of states, representing both 0 and 1 simultaneously.
