Overview

About

Maintained by Carsten UrbachFirst published 2020-12-093 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A quantum computer simulator framework with up to 24 qubits. It allows to define general single qubit gates and general controlled single qubit gates. For convenience, it currently provides the most common gates (X, Y, Z, H, Z, S, T, Rx, Ry, Rz, CNOT, SWAP, Toffoli or CCNOT, Fredkin or CSWAP). 'qsimulatR' also implements noise models. 'qsimulatR' supports plotting of circuits and is able to export circuits to 'Qiskit' <https://qiskit.org/>, a python package which can be used to run on IBM's hardware <https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/>.
