Quantum computing

Quantum computing Quantum computing  is the use of  quantum-mechanical   phenomena  such as  superposition  and  entanglement  to perform  computation . A  quantum computer  is used to perform such computation, which can be implemented theoretically or physically. [1] :I-5 The field of quantum computing is actually a sub-field of  quantum information science , which includes  quantum cryptography  and  quantum communication . Quantum Computing was started in the early 1980s when  Richard Feynman  and  Yuri Manin  expressed the idea that a quantum computer had the potential to simulate things that a  classical computer  could not. [2] [3]  In 1994,  Peter Shor  shocked the world with an  algorithm  that had the potential to decrypt all secured communications. [4] There are two main approaches to physically implementing a quantum computer currently...
