By this logic a 74LS138 is a “digital computer”. It’s limited because it has only 3 bits, but if you play with the input bits, the output bits change!

- anon_tor_12345 5y agoyou're trying to say because a decoder maps n -> 2^n that it's comparable to a QC. lol. my friend you clearly don't understand interference and entanglement. btw the circuits in quantum circuits clearly aren't just combinational since they evolve in time.
- xondono 5y agoNo I’m not, all I’m saying is that by OPs logic, I can claim to have a computer with only a part of it. “It’s not very useful but it can make computations” is a very low bar to pass, and very basic discrete (classical) logic can clear that without problems.
- anon_tor_12345 5y agoyou do realize that ENIAC, i.e. the computer that arguably helped the US win ww2, only had about 15 bits right?
