description Overview
qubit
The basic unit of quantum information, a qubit is a system with two distinguishable basis states conventionally labeled 0 and 1. Unlike a classical bit, its state can be a superposition of those basis states, described by complex amplitudes. These amplitudes determine measurement probabilities, while their relative phase matters when quantum operations cause different contributions to interfere....

qutrit
A qutrit is a fundamental unit of quantum information in quantum computing, representing the base-3 equivalent of a qubit. While a classical bit exists in a state of 0 or 1, and a standard qubit exists in a superposition of two states, a qutrit can exist in a superposition of three distinct states. These states are typically denoted as |0⟩, |1⟩, and |2⟩. The use of qutrits instead of qubits allows...
