pyqasm

Python toolkit providing an OpenQASM 3 semantic analyzer and utilities for program analysis and compilation.

[!WARNING] This project is "pre-alpha", and is not yet stable or fully realized. Use with caution, as the API and functionality are subject to significant changes.

Motivation

The current OpenQASM 3 standard is a powerful language for expressing hybrid quantum-classical programs, but it lacks a comprehensive tool supporting the full capabilities of the language. Pyqasm aims to fill this gap by building upon the openqasm parser, and providing support for semantic analysis and utilities for program compilation.

Installation

pyqasm requires Python 3.10 or greater, and can be installed with pip as follows:

pip install pyqasm

Install from source

You can also install from source by cloning this repository and running a pip install command in the root directory of the repository:

git clone https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm.git
cd pyqasm
pip install .

Check version

You can view the version of pyqasm you have installed within a Python shell as follows:

import pyqasm

pyqasm.__version__

Usage Examples

Unrolling OpenQASM 3 program

import pyqasm 

program = """
OPENQASM 3;
include "stdgates.inc";

qubit[2] q;
bit[2] c;

h q[0];
cx q[0], q[1];

c = measure q;
"""

unrolled_qasm = pyqasm.unroll(program)
print(unrolled_qasm)

For a more complex example, see the Deutsch Josza program unrolling

Validating OpenQASM 3 program

import pyqasm

program = """
OPENQASM 3;
include "stdgates.inc";
qubit[2] q;
bit[2] c;
// create a Bell state
h q[0];
cx q[0], q[1];

// measure the qubits
measure q -> c;
"""

pyqasm.validate(program)

validate returns None if the program is semantically valid, otherwise raises an Exception. See the validation example for more insight into the capabilities of our analyser.
