Researchers from IBM, the University of Waterloo and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have published the results of a quantum computing experiment that proves quantum computing has a "quantum advantage" over traditional computers. Quantum physics allows electrons to occupy multiple states at one time, and qubits exist in overlapping states. Previously, it had only been shown theoretically there are algorithms that couldn't operate on a classical computing system. The researchers used an IBM Q computer to simulate a system with two qubits (binary bits) in it.
