Quantum Computing with Python

Using existing frameworks/APIs (IBM Qiskit) and writing our own Python code to explore quantum computing.

Repository Structure:

notes/--as the name implies, this directory will contain my notes, formatted as YAML and PDF documents
src/--root directory for code

Additional Notes

As code is written, installation instructions will be added here. Python is required (>= 3.5), though additional components, including MS VC++, may be needed for Windows.

Getting Started

  1. Create and activate a virtual environment. If you are unfamiliar with this process, please click here.

  2. Issue pip install qiskit.

  3. Sign up for an IBM Quantum Experience account here. I could authenticate with the service using my GitHub account.

  4. Navigate to My Account and under Qiskit in local environment, select Copy token. Obtaining a Token

  5. Run src/qiskit/account-setup.py with the flag -k [TOKEN COPIED FROM WEBSITE]. This will save your credentials to disk.
