What is a quantum processing unit (QPU)?At the core of a quantum computer is the quantum processor, but these technologies are vastly different from the CPUs found in conventional computers.
-
What is a quantum bit (qubit)?Qubits are the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers — and, when fitted into these machines — rely on the weird laws of quantum mechanics to process calculations in parallel.
