You may have heard of a unique computer known as a quantum computer. These computers are similar to traditional computers as they both need to be programmed to perform tasks, process information, and perform logical operations such as AND, OR, and NOT. While the two types of computers have some similarities, quantum computers differ in how they compute data, how they are programmed, the hardware and settings that are required to run them, and more. Quantum computers are of great benefit to us globally due to the fact that they can solve complex problems and create accurate predictions that would take a classical computer an exceptionally long time to compute.
