See the link in my answer for more details. | |

Nov 4, 2014 at 4:43 | comment | added | Tyler | But how much in a unit, one bit or more? One of the main reasons I'm asking this is i don't see why a limitation to two states would be inherent to the physics. And if it's not, then what's the limit? | |
