A comparison of data mining tools
Data mining tools for better data analysis
  • Web analytics

In the digital age, it’s normal for data from small and medium-sized companies to grow to unmanageable amounts. Data mining tools are used to extract desired information from data sets. These extract recurring patterns from the data and make them available to marketers and statisticians. We have compared the most important data mining software and show where their strengths and weaknesses lie.

Qubits
What are qubits? The basis of quantum computing
  • Web development

Bits, bytes, terabytes. These are all terms we know. Modern computers use bits to process data. The memory size on USB sticks or hard drives, we then measure mostly in gigabytes or megabytes. So then, what’s behind the mystery qubit? In this article, we’ll tell you why qubits are at the heart of quantum computing and how they work.
