Quantum computing: an illustrated guide
Quantum physics works together with computer science to make a new type of computer called a quantum computer. It uses quantum weirdness to solve problems we have not been able to solve with supercomputers. It can crack codes way faster than supercomputers. It might even help us build better drugs and materials.
Why are some problems harder to solve than others? Who thought of making a quantum computer and who is making it? Are they very different to the ones we use now? Are there things it cannot do? Take a visual tour of its evolution: the people, the physics and a flavour of how we might program it.
