Quantum Computing and Its Potential Impact on Biostatistical Analysis

Abstract

Saras Wosy*

Quantum computing is a cutting-edge field of computing that harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to perform certain types of calculations much faster than classical computers. Unlike classical bits, which can represent either a 0 or a 1, quantum bits or qubits can exist in a superposition of states, allowing them to represent both 0 and 1 simultaneously. Additionally, qubits can be entangled, meaning the state of one qubit is dependent on the state of another, even if they are physically separated. Qubits can exist in multiple states at once, which enables quantum computers to explore many possibilities simultaneously. Classical computers, in contrast, process data sequentially.
