qcgpu 0.1.0 - Docs.rs

Features:

Uses OpenCL kernels
Runs cross platform
Simulation of arbitrary quantum algorithms
Optional simulation of decoherence
Optimized for maximally entangled states
Accelerated with GPUs
Includes Example Implementations of Grover's algorithm, the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm, the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm and Shors algorithm
Implements Hadamard, Pauli and phase gates, with support for arbitrary single qubit gate creation
Support for controlled gates along with the toffoli and swap gate
Support for measuring a state many times quickly

Prerequisites:

OpenCL (Ensure that an OpenCL library is installed for your platform and that clinfo or some other diagnostic command will run).
Rust (install here). Please use a nightly build.

If you wish to run the benchmarks, you must also install libquantum and qiskit.

Libquantum can be installed from source, or from a package manager such as brew (brew install libquantum --devel) or apt (sudo apt-get install libquantum-dev). You should get the development version 1.1.1
Qiskit can be installed through pip pip3 install qiskit.

Usage

First, add the crate to cargo.toml

[dependencies]
qcgpu = { git = "https://github.com/QCGPU/QCGPU-rust" }

Then just use the crate!

extern crate qcgpu;

fn main() {
    let mut state = qcgpu::State::new(2, 0);
    state.apply_gate(0, qcgpu::gates::x());

    println!("Measured: {}", state.measure());
    // 1
}
