Of course, it is our experience that when we look at something, we only ever find it in one single state. This is explained by the many states of the particle collapsing to a single state and highlights the importance of observation. . Essentially, this allows you to put variables into a superposition of states, have them interact with each other (so that all states interact) and then observe them (testing to see if they satisfy some comparison operator, printing them) which will collapse the entire system so that it is consistent with your knowledge.
