Written by Okeowo Queen Out of all the various computing technologies such as cloud computing, edge computing, classical computing, and so on, quantum technology is a newly emerging technology that uses the principles of quantum mechanics to perform calculations. Unlike classical computers that use bits, which are either 0 or 1, quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can be in a superposition of both 0 and 1 states at the same time. This property allows quantum computers to perform certain types of calculations much faster than classical computers. various types of quantum computing Gate-based Quantum Computing: This is the most common type of quantum computing, which uses quantum gates to manipulate the state of qubits. Gate-based computing is still in its early stages, but it has the potential to transform many fields, including drug discovery and optimization.  Topological Quantum Computing: This involves the use of exotic particles called anyons to perfor...
