Just playing around with IBM Q and executing quantum circuits.

A qiskit starter pack for newbies.

Prereqs

1. Python 3.6.6 (64bit) installed (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-366/)
2. virtualenv already installed
   "pip install virtualenv"
3. IBM Quantum Experiance account (Free) (https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/)
4. Qiskit token, can be found under your IBM Quantum Experiance account
5. Qiskit token stored in a text document at:
   '''C:\Tokens\Qiskit\IBMQ.txt'''
6. According to https://qiskit.org/documentation/install.html, you may need VS 2015 and 2017 C++ redistributables

Getting Started (Using Jupyter)

1. Clone
2. Navigate to root of repo
3. install virtualenv (base python 3.6.6)
   virtualenv --python="C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\python.exe" .venv
4. Activate virtualenv
   .venv\Scripts\activate
5. Install all dependiencies
   pip install -r requirements.txt
6. Install kernal
   ipython kernel install --user --name=.venv
7. Start Jupyter Lab
   Jupyter lab
