&lt;p>In contrast to a classical bit, which can only take the value 0 or 1, its quantum counterpart—a qubit—can exist in a superposition of $0$ and $1$. This is a superposition of data values, naturally raising the question of whether one can superpose not only data but also programs. For example, a particular superposition of programs, known as the quantum SWITCH, has attracted much attention, and its implementations and computational advantages have been studied extensively within the physics community.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
