Intro to Electrical Engineering
Shor's Algorithm is a quantum algorithm that efficiently factors large integers into their prime components, significantly faster than the best-known classical algorithms. This ability to factor numbers quickly poses a potential threat to current cryptographic systems that rely on the difficulty of factorization for security, making it a cornerstone in the study of quantum computing and its applications in quantum electronics.
