QUANTUM COMPUTING
Overview

                    ✓ A Quantum system replaces classical bits with quantum
                      qubits

                    ✓ Qubits follow the superposition principle and can exist as
                      “0” and “1” at the same time

                    ✓ Using qubits instead of bits, with a single input one could
                      process all the possible combinations of “0” and “1”’s in a
                      string at the same time
