How Does Quantum Computing Compare with Traditional Computing? Traditional computing is based on deterministic computing. In essence, the 1’s and 0’s, or bits, translate to specific outputs. Quantum computing is based on probabilistic computing. “Each unit of computation, or qubit, has a continuous probability of being between 0 and 1,” says Jehi. “So, it can […]
