To a programmer, code can seem a “domain of sorcery” in which strings of characters have power in the real world.

Quantum computers can store bits of zeros and ones simultaneously in qubits. That's a big upgrade from traditional computers, which store zeros and ones separately in binary bits.

Unlike traditional computers, which still store data in binary bits of zeros and ones, quantum computers can store them simultaneously in qubits.

A computer is a binary machine; the more one exploits basic binary hardware resources, the better the code generated should perform. Nilo Stolte has extensive experience in computer graphics, computer ...
