CQASMConverter

class perceval_interop.cqasm.cqasm_converter.CQASMConverter(backend_name='SLOS', noise_model=None)

cQASM quantum circuit to perceval processor converter.

Parameters:

backend_name (str) – backend name used in the converted processor (default SLOS)

classmethod check_version(source_string)

Extracts the version number string from a cQASM program

Parameters:

source_string – the cQASM program stored in a string

Returns:

a tuple (major, minor) with the version number

convert(ast, use_postselection=True)

Convert a cQASM quantum program into a Processor.

Parameters:

• ast (a Program object, as returned by the cQASM parser) – the AST of a cQASM program

• use_postselection (bool) – when True, uses a postprocessed CNOT

as the last gate. Otherwise, uses only heralded CNOT

Return type:

Processor

Returns:

the converted processor
