For some time now I have been interested in quantum computing, which has led me to explore some technologies such as the Microsoft Quantum Develop Kit.

Primary LanguageC#

Quantum Random Number Generator

This initiative delves into the development of a Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) leveraging the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit. The primary objective is to harness quantum superposition and entanglement to produce a sequence of random numbers. These numbers have potential applications across multiple domains, including cryptography, gaming, and scientific exploration. In this iteration of the QRNG project, we focus on melding a quantum simulator with practical applications, aiming to create a reliable source of random numbers for cryptographic use.

Implementation with Quantum Cloud Services

In this unique variation of the Quantum Random Number Generator project, we explore the implementation of a QRNG using Quantum Cloud Services. By leveraging the power of cloud-based quantum computing, we can generate a stream of random numbers with enhanced scalability and performance.

Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Azure subscription
  • Microsoft Quantum Development Kit

Project Structure

  • Program.cs: The main C# program that interacts with the Quantum Cloud Services.
  • Qrng.qs: Contains the Q# operations for generating random numbers using cloud-based quantum computing.
  • Quantum.csproj: The project file (replace 'Quantum' with your actual project name).

How It Works

The Quantum.qs file has been modified to utilize Quantum Cloud Services for generating random numbers. The quantum operations are executed on remote quantum computers hosted in the cloud, allowing for efficient and scalable random number generation.

The C# host program interacts with the Quantum Cloud Services, making API calls to initiate the quantum operations and retrieve the generated random numbers. The output is a secure stream of random numbers that can be used for various applications.

Getting Started

To run this unique variation of the Quantum Random Number Generator project with Quantum Cloud Services, follow these steps:

  1. Set up a Microsoft Azure subscription and create a Quantum Workspace.

  2. Install the necessary dependencies, including the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit.

  3. Configure the project to connect to your Quantum Workspace by providing the required credentials.

  4. Build and run the project using the following commands:

    dotnet build
dotnet run

  5. Follow the instructions in the application to utilize the generated random numbers for your desired application.
