==Details==

Quantum computers use priniples of [[quantum mechanics]], and utilize states of matter (other than the typical solids, liquids, and gasses) which can only exist at temperatures very near [[absolute zero]]. These additional matter states enable the computer to have values be both 1 and 0 simultaneously.<ref name="howstuffworks.com 1">http://computer.howstuffworks.com/quantum-computer.htm</ref> This differs from the traditional binary computer because while normal computers can only have one or zero at a given point, Quantum Computers can have anything from 0-1 at the same time. The values can be 0 or 1 or a superposition of 0 and 1; in other words the symbols are both 0 and 1 (and all points in between) at the same time. While a normal binary machine can only perform one calculation at a time, a quantum computer can perform many calculations at once.<ref name="howstuffworks.com 1">http://computer.howstuffworks.com/quantum-computer.htm</ref>
