COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -A qubit is a quantum bit, the counterpart in quantum computing to the binary digit or bit of classical computing. Just as a bit is the basic unit of information in a classical computer, a qubit is the basic unit of information in a quantum computer.

Detailed explanation-2: -A qubit can store a single bit – the smallest possible unit of digital information – and is the fundamental building block of a future quantum computer. Qubits made of semiconducting materials, such as those being researched in Basel, are among the most promising candidates.

Detailed explanation-3: -Quantum computing relies on quantum bits, or “qubits”, which can also represent a 0 or a 1.

Detailed explanation-4: -In quantum computing, a qubit (/ˈkjuːbɪt/) or quantum bit is a basic storage/symbol, into which a bit of quantum information is stored/encoded-the quantum version of the classic binary bit physically realized with a two-state device.
