The Steane code is a type of quantum error-correcting code developed by Andrew Steane in 1996. It is particularly significant in the field of quantum computing due to its ability to protect quantum information from decoherence and other types of errors that can occur during quantum computations. ### Key Features of the Steane Code: 1. **Error Correction Capability**: The Steane code can correct for arbitrary single-qubit errors, both bit-flip and phase-flip errors.
