.. header-start-inclusion-marker-do-not-remove

The PennyLane-ProjectQ plugin integrates the ProjectQ quantum computing library with PennyLane's
quantum machine learning capabilities.

`PennyLane <https://pennylane.readthedocs.io>`_ is a cross-platform Python library for quantum machine
learning, automatic differentiation, and optimization of hybrid quantum-classical computations.

`ProjectQ <https://projectq.readthedocs.io>`_ is an open-source compilation framework capable of targeting various types of hardware and a high-performance quantum computer simulator with emulation capabilities, and various compiler plug-ins.
`ProjectQ <https://projectq.readthedocs.io>`_ is an open-source compilation framework capable of
targeting various types of hardware and a high-performance quantum computer simulator with
emulation capabilities, and various compiler plug-ins.

This PennyLane plugin allows to use both the software and hardware backends of ProjectQ as devices for PennyLane.

Installation

$ make test

in the source folder. Tests restricted to a specific device can be run by executing :code:`make test-simulator`, :code:`make test-ibm`, or :code:`make test-classical`.

.. note:: Tests on the `ibm device <https://pennylane-pq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/devices.html#projectqibmbackend>`_ can only be run if a :code:`user` and :code:`password` for the `IBM Q experience <https://quantumexperience.ng.bluemix.net/qx/experience>`_ are configured in the `PennyLane configuration file <https://pennylane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code/configuration.html>`_. If this is the case, running :code:`make test` also executes tests on the :code:`ibm` device. By default tests on the :code:`ibm` device run with :code:`hardware=False`. At the time of writing this means that the test are "free". Please verify that this is also the case for your account.

Getting started
===============

You can instantiate a :code:`'projectq.simulator'` device for PennyLane with:

.. code-block:: python

import pennylane as qml
dev = qml.device('projectq.simulator', wires=2)
in the source folder. Tests restricted to a specific device can be run by executing
:code:`make test-simulator`, :code:`make test-ibm`, or :code:`make test-classical`.

This device can then be used just like other devices for the definition and evaluation of QNodes within PennyLane. A simple quantum function that returns the expectation value of a measurement and depends on three classical input parameters would look like:
.. note::

.. code-block:: python
Tests on the `ibm device <https://pennylane-pq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/devices.html#projectqibmbackend>`_
can only be run if a :code:`user` and :code:`password` for the
`IBM Q experience <https://quantumexperience.ng.bluemix.net/qx/experience>`_ are configured
in the `PennyLane configuration file <https://pennylane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code/configuration.html>`_.

If this is the case, running :code:`make test` also executes tests on the :code:`ibm` device.
By default tests on the :code:`ibm` device run with :code:`hardware=False`. At the time of writing this
means that the test are "free". Please verify that this is also the case for your account.

@qml.qnode(dev)
def circuit(x, y, z):
qml.RZ(z, wires=[0])
qml.RY(y, wires=[0])
qml.RX(x, wires=[0])
qml.CNOT(wires=[0, 1])
return qml.expval(qml.PauliZ(wires=1))

You can then execute the circuit like any other function to get the quantum mechanical expectation value.

.. code-block:: python

circuit(0.2, 0.1, 0.3)

Running your code on an IBM Quantum Experience simulator or even a real hardware chip is just as easy. Instead of the device above, you would instantiate a :code:`'projectq.ibm'` device by giving your IBM Quantum Experience username and password:

.. code-block:: python

import pennylane as qml
dev = qml.device('projectq.ibm', wires=2, user="XXX", password="XXX")

In order to avoid accidentally publishing your credential, you should better specify them via the `PennyLane configuration file <https://pennylane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code/configuration.html>`_ by adding a section such as

.. code::

[projectq.global]

[projectq.ibm]
user = "XXX"
password = "XXX"
