However, even with the phenomenal strides we made in technology and classical computers since the onset of the computer revolution, there remain problems that classical computers just can’t solve. Many believe quantum computers are the answer. These are the problems that quantum computers are predicted to solve. It’s this ability that quantum computers take advantage of. Instead of bits, which conventional computers use, a quantum computer uses quantum bits—known as qubits.
