**Yao** Extensible, Efficient Quantum Algorithm Design for Humans.

## Introduction

Yao is an open source framework that aims to empower quantum information research with software tools. It is designed with following in mind:

- quantum algorithm design;
- quantum [software 2.0](https://medium.com/@karpathy/software-2-0-a64152b37c35);
- quantum computation education.

**We are in an early-release beta. Expect some adventures and rough edges.**

## Try your first Yao program

A 3 line Quantum Fourier Transformation with [Quantum Blocks](http://docs.yaoquantum.org/dev/man/blocks.html):

```julia
A(i, j) = control(i, j=>shift(2π/(1<<(i-j+1))))
B(n, k) = chain(n, j==k ? put(k=>H) : A(j, k) for j in k:n)
qft(n) = chain(B(n, k) for k in 1:n)
```

## Installation


Yao is a  


Julia Language

  package. To install Yao,
please open
Julia's interactive session (known as REPL)
and press ] key in the REPL to use the package mode, then type the following command

For stable release

```julia
pkg> add Yao
```

For current master

```julia
pkg> add Yao#master
```

If you have problem to install the package, please [file us an issue](https://github.com/QuantumBFS/Yao.jl/issues/new).

For CUDA support, see [CuYao.jl](https://github.com/QuantumBFS/CuYao.jl).

For tensor network based simulations, see [YaoToEinsum.jl](https://github.com/QuantumBFS/YaoToEinsum.jl).
