The Fredkin gate (also CSWAP gate) is a computational circuit suitable for reversible computing, invented by Ed Fredkin. It is universal, which means that any logical or arithmetic operation can be constructed entirely of Fredkin gates. The Fredkin gate is the three-bit gate that swaps the last two bits if the first bit is 1.

Famous quotes containing the word gate:
“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it.”
