Exercises

  1. Install the Qiskit quantum processor software development framework by following the instructions at https://qiskit.org/documentation/getting_started.html. The instructions suggest the installation of the Anaconda (https://www.anaconda.com/) data science and machine learning toolset. After installing Anaconda, create a Conda virtual environment named qisketenv to contain your work on quantum code and install Qisket in this environment with the command pip install qiskit. Make sure that you install the optional visualization dependencies with the pip install qiskit-terra[visualization] command.
  2. Create a free IBM Quantum account at https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/. Locate your IBM Quantum Services API token at https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/account and install it into your local environment using the instructions at https://qiskit.org/documentation/stable/0.24/install.html.
  3. Work through the example quantum program at https://qiskit.org/documentation...
