Setup env

Create your virtual env

To create your virtual env I suggested to use Anaconda

If you are on Linux you can setup your virtual env by using :

Linux env

  toto$ ( echo; echo '##### added for quantum #####';
  echo 'export PATH=/home/toto/.local/bin:$PATH';
  echo "alias quantum='source ~/quantum/bin/activate'" ) >> ~/.bashrc
  toto$ . ~/.bashrc
  toto$ pip3 install --upgrade pip
  toto$ python3 -m pip install virtualenv
  toto$ python3 -m virtualenv quantum
  toto$ quantum

Inside your env, check your python installation :

conda activate name_of_my_env
python --version

⚠️ Be careful some quantum libs have problem with ❌ python 3.9, so stop yourself to python 3.8 : pip install python==3.8.7

Installing libraries

To run our project you'll need a bunch of libraries, to installed them run the following command :

pip install pennylane
pip install pennylane-qiskit
pip install pennylane-sf

# For numpy install the following lib
pip install autograd
pip install torch torchvision

In case you have python 2.x and python 3.x cohabited on your virtual system, use pip3 instead of pip
