q1ram 0.1.6

Q1RAM Python client for interacting with the Quantum RAM API

Q1RAM Client API Methods

Q1RAM (Quantum Random Access Memory) is a quantum memory architecture designed to enable efficient storage and retrieval of quantum data at an any arbitrary address(es) with O(1) complexity, as introduced in the paper "Q1RAM: Quantum Random Access Memory". This client API provides methods to interact with Q1RAM, allowing manipulation of quantum memory in both single and superposition states.

Authentication

Before using any method, authenticate with the API:

from q1ram import authenticate
authenticate()

---

1. read

Purpose:
Reads data from the Q1RAM at a specified address or in superposition.

Signature:

read(address_register=None, data_register=None, address_value=None, data_value=None)

Parameters:

• address_register: Optional. QuantumRegister or list specifying the address qubits.
• data_register: Optional. QuantumRegister or list specifying the data qubits.
• address_value: Optional. List of integers specifying the classical address to read from. If omitted, reads in superposition.
• data_value: Optional. List of integers specifying the classical data to match (rarely used for read).

Usage Examples:

• Read from a superposition address states:

  qram.read(address_value=[0, 1])
  

---

2. write

Purpose:
Writes data to the Q1RAM at a single or superposition address states.

Signature:

write(address_register=None, data_register=None, address_value=None, data_value=None)

Parameters:

• address_register: Optional. QuantumRegister or list specifying the address qubits.
• data_register: Optional. QuantumRegister or list specifying the data qubits.
• address_value: Optional. List of integers specifying the classical address to write to. If omitted, writes in superposition.
• data_value: Required. List of integers specifying the data to write.

Usage Examples:

• Write to a specific address:

  qram.write(address_value=[0, 1], data_value=[5])
  

---

3. read_all

Purpose:
Reads all data from Q1RAM, typically used to retrieve the full memory contents.

Signature:

read_all()

Usage Example:

qram.read_all()

---

Example Workflow

from q1ram_client.q1ram.circuit import Q1RAM, authenticate
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit

authenticate()
qc = QuantumCircuit()
qram = Q1RAM(qc, number_address_qubits=2, number_data_qubits=2)

# Write data to address [0, 1]
qram.write(address_value=[0, 1], data_value=[1, 0])

# Read data from address [0, 1]
qram.read(address_value=[0, 1])

# Write data in superposition
qram.write(data_value=[1, 1])

# Read all data in superposition
qram.read()

---

Notes

• All API calls require valid authentication credentials, by registering on https://q1ram.com.
• The methods interact with the Q1RAM backend via HTTP requests and update the local quantum circuit accordingly.
• For advanced usage, you can provide custom quantum registers for address and data.
