pyQuil
A Python library for quantum programming using Quil, enabling simulation and execution on real quantum processors.
What is pyQuil?
PyQuil is a Python library for quantum programming using the Quil instruction language. It allows developers to write quantum programs, simulate them with the Quantum Virtual Machine, and run them on Rigetti's real quantum processors via Quantum Cloud Services. It solves the problem of bridging high-level quantum algorithm design with practical execution on quantum hardware.
Quantum computing researchers, developers, and students who want to program quantum computers using Python and need tools for simulation and real hardware execution.
Developers choose PyQuil because it provides a full-stack quantum programming environment integrated with Rigetti's hardware, offers extensive simulation capabilities, and is part of the well-supported Forest SDK ecosystem.
