Solovay Kitaev algorithm

This is a C++ implementation of the Solovay-Kitaev algorithm, a review of which can be found at quant-ph/0505030

The field has moved on since this was published (see for example here or here). This repo is for historical and pedagogical purposes, as well as proof that I once documented my code.


Two Makefiles are provided, one for Linux/g++ the other for Windows/VC++.

Check out python/README for info regarding the accompanying python module.

If you have doxygen installed you can run 'doxygen sk.dox' to generate all the documentation, otherwise you can download it from http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/people/dawson/sk
