OpenQASM

Specs, examples and tools for the OpenQASM intermediate representation.

Current version

The latest version is: 2.0.

About this project

On this repository you'll find all the documentation related to OpenQASM and some useful OpenQASM examples.

Language specs

The language documentation is available here.

Examples

The examples can be found under the examples folder.

They are OpenQASM files, i.e.:

// Repetition code syndrome measurement
OPENQASM 2.0;
include "qelib1.inc";
qreg q[3];
qreg a[2];
creg c[3];
creg syn[2];
gate syndrome d1,d2,d3,a1,a2
{
  cx d1,a1; cx d2,a1;
  cx d2,a2; cx d3,a2;
}
x q[0]; // error
barrier q;
syndrome q[0],q[1],q[2],a[0],a[1];
measure a -> syn;
if(syn==1) x q[0];
if(syn==2) x q[2];
if(syn==3) x q[1];
measure q -> c;

Tests

The official OpenQASM conformance test suite is included in this repo.
