QiskitBackend

class QiskitBackend(backend=None, port=None)

This class instantiates a VirtualBackend using a Qiskit backend. This allows easy access to Qiskit backends through the qrisp interface.

Parameters:

backendQiskit backend object, optional

A Qiskit backend object, which runs QuantumCircuits. The default is AerSimulator().

portint, optional

The port to listen. The default is 8079.

Examples

We evaluate a QuantumFloat multiplication on the Aer simulator.

>>> from qrisp import QuantumFloat
>>> from qrisp.interface import QiskitBackend
>>> from qiskit_aer import AerSimulator
>>> example_backend = QiskitBackend(backend = AerSimulator())
>>> qf = QuantumFloat(4)
>>> qf[:] = 3
>>> res = qf*qf
>>> res.get_measurement(backend = example_backend)
