Prepare yourself for Quantum Computing (Interview)
The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Why Is Quantum Computing Important?
Quantum computing is important because it can process combinations of superpositions much faster than classical computing, leading to significant speed gains in certain problems. While the outcome of problems may not be immediately important, the process of solving them is, and quantum algorithms focus on this. Even though the hardware for quantum computing is still being developed, it has potential applications in areas like secure encryption and breaking RSA. The number of qubits is not the sole determinant of progress in quantum computing, but the ability to process information much faster than classical computers is where the real gain comes from.
