pytket¶
pytket is a python module for interfacing with CQC t|ket>, a set of
quantum programming tools. We currently support circuits and device
architectures from Google Cirq, IBM Qiskit, Pyzx, ProjectQ
and Rigetti pyQuil, allowing the t|ket> tools to be used in
conjunction with projects on these platforms.
Getting Started¶
pytket is available for python3.6 or higher, on Linux and MacOS.
To install, run
pip install pytket
Note: attempting to install from source will not set up the required binaries for the t|ket> compiler, so we recommend the PyPI installation.
See the Getting Started page for a quick introduction to using
pytket.
To get more in depth on features, see the examples.
Interfaces¶
To use pytket in conjunction with other platforms you must download an
additional separate module for each. This can be done from pip, or from
source, as they binaries are included with the core pytket package.
For each subpackage:
Qiskit: pip install pytket-qiskit
Cirq: pip install pytket-cirq
PyQuil: pip install pytket-pyquil
ProjectQ: pip install pytket-projectq
PyZX: pip install pytket-pyzx
Note:this will need a separate install of pyzx from source.
