But what am I going to do with it?
- nxzero 10y agoPinky: Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight? Brain: The same thing we do every night, Pinky - try to take over the world! ______ Currently, I'm not aware of anything that's not able to be done with QC qubits that not able to be done with classical binary computation. If you wanted, you can download quantum computer simulator, write some QC'ish code, run the code, and you'll never write any code that won't resolve with crashing or taking forever, though it'd be faster on the 5 qubits though.
- Panoramix 10y agoI think David Deutsch came up with some simple algorithms back in the early 90's that are exponentially faster in a QC. I don't know if they implemented Hadamard/XOR gates in this thing.
