An open source framework for programming quantum computers

Cirq is a Python software library for writing, manipulating, and optimizing quantum circuits, and then running them on quantum computers and quantum simulators. Cirq provides useful abstractions for dealing with today’s noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers, where details of the hardware are vital to achieving state-of-the-art results.

Install cirq using pip:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install cirq

Some optional dependencies of features in cirq.contrib:

python -m pip install cirq-core[contrib]

System dependancies that pip can't handle:

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base latexmk
