As you explore the world of quantum computing, it is important to understand the smaller components that lead to this concept. If you are familiar traditional computing, you likely have trained yourself to work in binary. A qubit is the binary equivalent in quantum computing and in this course, you will learn all about Qubit Modalities. In this course, you will explore how qubits are related to trapped ions which will lead to Qubit Superconducting.
