New Words to Learn
6 wordsquantum algorithm
A detailed set of steps that runs on a quantum computer, using quantum physics to solve problems more efficiently.
qubit
The basic unit of information in a quantum computer, capable of representing both 0 and 1 simultaneously.
processor
The component of a computer that carries out calculations and processes data.
quantum advantage
The point at which a quantum computer can solve a problem faster or better than any traditional computer.
subatomic
Particles that are smaller than an atom, such as electrons or protons.
active
Continuing to function or remain effective; here it means the quantum advantage persists over time.
