Ternary Computer

A ternary computer is a type of computer that uses three states or values for its calculations, typically represented as -1, 0, and +1, instead of the two states (0 and 1) used in traditional binary computers. This allows for potentially more efficient data processing and storage, as each "trit" (ternary bit) can carry more information than a binary bit. While binary systems are more common today, ternary computers offer theoretical advantages in speed and complexity, though they are less widely implemented in practice.
