In this game the player's goal is to solve a sudoku using quantum circuits.
In the first level, the player has to solve a 2x2 Sudoku using 0 and 1. A quantum circuit is given to the player with a given input state, fixed quantum gates and some additional single-qubit gates the user has to choose to solve the sudoku. These gates can be chosen between Hadamard, Z-gate, X-gate and Identity.
The verification of the solution is done using a simulator which runs the circuits 1024 times, the sukodu is considered completed if the right outcome is obtained with probability 100%. The output will be True if the Sudoku is solved successfully.
We implement the following quantum sudoku for this level:
The solution is given by the gates X, X, I and H (in order), which gives indeed the result 1001 with 100% probability.
In the second level the players have to solve a 4x4 Sudoku, using numbers from 0 to 3. The quantum enconding works as following: 0 --> \ket{0}, 1 --> \ket{1}, 2 --> \ket{+} and 3 --> \ket{-}. In this case the players can choose both single-qubit gates (Hadamard, Z-gate, X-gate and Identity), two-qubit gates (Cnot, Cz) and also the measurement basis (z-basis and x-basis). The sudoku we invented is shown below:
The right solution is given by: single qubit gates = 'Z', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'X', 'I', 'H', 'H', 'Z', 'X' two qubit gates ='CZ', 'CX', 'CX', 'CZ', 'CZ', 'CZ' measurement basis = 'Mz', 'Mz', 'Mz', 'Mz', 'Mx', 'Mx', 'Mz', 'Mx', 'Mz', 'Mx' which gives the result 1100001100111100 (starting from q0 to the right) with 100% probability.
- form interface import play
- play()
- choose level 1 (level 2 in progress)
- choose the gates following the insructions in the terminal
- see if your result is correct
To be properly implemented in the interface, if you wnat to try it follow the instructions:
- use the notebook "sudoku_4x4_level1.ipynb" to visualize the empty sudoku and the associated circuit you have to edit
- use the notebok "sudoku_4x4_level1_cod_measurement.ipynb" to insert your gates and measurements choices, run completed circuit and see if your solution is the right one.
This game can be extended in many ways adding more difficult 4x4 sudoku or 6x6 sudoku using also the Y basis for the encoding.
