Computational Basis

The **computational basis** is the standard set of basis states used to describe qubits in quantum computing—typically (|0⟩) and (|1⟩) for a single qubit, or all possible combinations like (|00⟩, |01⟩, |10⟩, |11⟩) for multiple qubits. These states correspond to classical bit strings and form an orthonormal basis for the system’s Hilbert space. Any quantum state can be expressed as a superposition of these computational basis states.
