Quantum computing part 1

Are you tired of your extra slow computer speed. Have you ever wanted to get the edge over everyone else in the office. Well, I might have the solution just for you. Quantum computing may become the next best thing.  In order for us to understand quantum computing we have to understand regular computing first. In this 3 part blog post series, I will explain to you the wonders of quantum level computing.

First of all, how does our computers nowadays work? Just like us humans, computers understand directions and tasks through language; however, there language is a little different. The run on a language known as binary code. There is only two possible letters in this code: zeros and ones.  The computer runs tasks through a grouping of these two options. For example, 00 0100 1110 1010, would be a code that the computer would mean. This is because 0 represents "off" and 1 represents "on". This gives the computer two different choices to perform tasks. With the combination of billions of zeros and ones, the computer is able to accomplish very complex tasks.

So you may be wondering now, why do we need to change our system of computing if it works well already? How does quantum physics relate to this? Now that you understand the basics of regular computing I will be able to explains quantum computing better, but I will save this for next week. This way I won't turn your brain into mush.
