Quantum computing is an advanced
computational technology based on
quantum mechanics. Unlike classical
computers, which use bits to represent
information as either 0 or 1, quantum
computers utilize qubits, which can exist in
multiple states simultaneously. This allows
for exponentially faster processing and
complex problem-solving capabilities.

INTERFERENCE

Quantum interference allows


quantum computers to refine and
optimize their calculations. By
leveraging interference, quantum
algorithms can cancel out incorrect
answers and amplify the probability
of correct results, making
computations more efficient.
Qubits and Quantum

Qubits are manipulated using quantum
gates, which apply transformations based
on quantum principles. Unlike classical logic
gates (AND, OR, NOT), quantum gates such
as Hadamard, Pauli, and Toffoli allow qubits
to interact in complex ways.
