Quantum volume is a metric used to quantify the capability and performance of a quantum computer. Introduced by IBM, it provides a way to measure how effectively a quantum computer can execute complex quantum algorithms and perform computations that take advantage of quantum mechanics. The concept of quantum volume incorporates several factors that influence a quantum computer's performance, such as: 1. **Number of Qubits**: It accounts for the total number of qubits that are available for computation.
