Toward a code-breaking quantum computer - MIT News
2024年8月23日 · To factor a very large number, a quantum circuit would need to run many times, performing operations that involve computing powers, like 2 to the power of 100. But computing such large powers is costly and difficult to perform on a quantum computer, since quantum computers can only perform reversible operations.
