Quantum Computing is relatively new and it's kind of a special type of computing that uses the laws of quantum physics. In classical computing, we have some limitations and we can overcome those with the help of Quantum Computing as it uses qubits, but we need to keep those qubits at low temperature. Quantum Computing uses the probabilistic nature of electrons. The power of a quantum computer increases exponentially with the number of qubits linked tougher. Quantum computers are very difficult to make but there are a huge number of calculations that can be done easily with the use of a quantum computer. Quantum computers are way better and faster than classical computers. So, we can say that quantum computers rather than quantum computing will be used in the near future to replace classical computing.

The first computer originated as an ordinary calculator in 19th century. Subsequently, the rapid evolution of computers began. The massive amount of processing power generated by computer manufacturers has always failed to quench the thirst for speed and computing capacity. If, as Moore's Law states, the number of transistors on a microprocessor continues to double every 18 months, then soon we will find the circuits on a microprocessor being measured on an atomic scale. Today's advanced lithographic techniques can squeeze fraction of micron wide logic gates and wires onto the surface of silicon chips. Thus it can be seen that very soon we will be facing the need to create quantum computers which can harness the power of atoms and molecules to perform memory and processing tasks. Quantum computers have the potential to perform calculations a billion times faster than any silicon-based computer. Also, theories suggest that every physical object, even the universe, is in some sense a quantum computer. If this is the case, then according to Turing's work which says that all computers are functionally equivalent; computers should be able to model every physical process. Scientists have already built basic quantum computers that can perform certain calculations; but a practical quantum computer is still years away. In this paper, we will be discussing about the history, development and the future scope of quantum computing. The pros and cons of this future technology have also been compared and our analysis has been put forth.
Quantum theory is one of the most successful theories that have influenced the course of
scientific progress during the twentieth century. It has presented a new line of scientific thought, predicted entirely inconceivable situations and influenced several domains of
modern technologies. There are many different ways for expressing laws of science in
general and laws of physics in particular. Similar to physical laws of nature, information
can also be expressed in different ways. The fact that information can be expressed in
different ways without losing its essential nature, leads for the possibility of the automatic
manipulation of information.
Quantum computing is a study area that focuses on developing computers based on the properties of “quantum theory” & “quantum physics”. Quantum theory defines the behavior & nature of energy and matter on the “atomic” and “subatomic” levels also known as the quantum levels. A quantum computer is a computational device that utilizes the phenomena of quantum mechanics with its quantum properties to structure & process data. A large-scale quantum computer is capable of performing operations in exponentially enormous speed compared to a classical computer. Development of such computers is considered a massive leap for mankind in computing abilities with huge performance gains for simulations or brute force for example.
All ways of expressing information use physical system, spoken words are
conveyed by air pressure fluctuations: “No information without physical representation”.
Quantum computers are not meant to replace typical computers. In practice, they will be separate instruments used to solve complex, data-heavy problems, particularly those that make use of machine learning, where the system can make predictions and improve over time.
Quantum computing studies theoretical computation systems (quantum computers) that make direct use of quantum-mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement, to perform operations on data. This paper will focus on the extent to which quantum computing will be helpful, will compare classical versus quantum computing and some problems which are not feasible to solve by classical computing which calls for a demand of faster computer which is Quantum Computer. The researcher's have discovered the possibility for an entirely new type of computer, one that operates according to the laws of quantum physics. A quantum computer would not just be a traditional computer built out of different parts, but a machine that would exploit the laws of quantum physics to perform certain information processing tasks in a spectacularly more efficient manner.
As technological innovations in computers begin to advance past their limit (Moore’s law), a new problem arises: What computational device would emerge after the classical supercomputers reach their physical limitations? At this moment in time, quantum computers are at their starting stage and there are already some strengths and advantages when compared with modern, classical computers. In its testing period, there are a variety of ways to create a quantum computer by processes such as the trapped-ion and the spin-dot methods. Nowadays, there are many drawbacks with quantum computers such as issues with decoherence and scalability, but many of these issues are easily emended. Nevertheless, the benefits of quantum computers at the moment outweigh the potential drawbacks. These benefits include its use of many properties of quantum mechanics such as quantum superposition, entanglement, and parallelism. Using these basic properties of quantum mechanics, quantum computers are capable of achieving faster computational times for certain problems such as finding prime factors of an integer by using Shor’s algorithm. From the advantages such as faster computing times in certain situations and higher computing powers than classical computers, quantum computers have a high probability to be the future of computing after classical computers hit their peak.
Quantum computing, an emerging trend in computer engineering, originated from quantum physics, which deals with solving problems that were not solved by classical computing. It mainly stored and manipulated classical information in the form of quantum bits (basic unit of quantum information) or qubits. The advancement relies mainly on the particles that persist in two states (different transitions) at same time. The subatomic particles are basically information carriers that mainly consist of high energy particles such as electrons, photons, ions, etc. Quantum computing can be used to tackle various problems related to simulations and optimization. In a quantum computer, qubit or quantum-bit is used as a basic unit of memory. Qubits are created on physical systems and these systems follow the quantum superposition property. The qubits are linked together using quantum entanglement property. The series of qubits can be presented using different things. Quantum computers are exponentially faster than classical computers. Qubits have two quantum states similar to classical computers. The quantum state is represented as Dirac notation.
Quantum computing is like having a supercharged computer that can do many things at once, thanks to some mind-bending physics tricks. Regular computers use bits that are either 0 or 1. But in quantum computers, we have qubits that can be both 0 and 1 at the same time. It's like having a magic coin that's both heads and tails until you look at it. These qubits can also be connected in a special way called entanglement. Imagine having two magic coins that always show the same side, no matter how far apart they are. This helps quantum computers solve problems crazy fast. The hardware of a quantum computer is made of super-cool stuff like tiny particles kept in special conditions. This keeps them in their magical quantum states. Why is this exciting? Because quantum computers can tackle huge problems much faster than regular ones. They can help us discover new medicines, create better materials, and even make our online data safer with super-secure codes. In short, quantum computing is like having a superhero computer that does things in a whole new, super-fast, and super-cool way because of the strange rules of quantum physics!
