Abstract

Quantum Computing is relatively new and it's kind of a special type of computing that uses the laws of quantum physics. In classical computing, we have some limitations and we can overcome those with the help of Quantum Computing as it uses qubits, but we need to keep those qubits at low temperature. Quantum Computing uses the probabilistic nature of electrons. The power of a quantum computer increases exponentially with the number of qubits linked tougher. Quantum computers are very difficult to make but there are a huge number of calculations that can be done easily with the use of a quantum computer. Quantum computers are way better and faster than classical computers. So, we can say that quantum computers rather than quantum computing will be used in the near future to replace classical computing.
