QUIPPER-LANGUAGE

Quipper: embedded, scalable functional programming language for quantum computing, based on the Quantum Lambda Calculus; v0.7 (10/14/2014).

Unofficial fork from: http://www.mathstat.dal.ca/~selinger/quipper/

Tested with the Haskell Platform 2012 & 2013 on Linux x86_64/OS X 10.7

To-do

• Make Quipper Cabal installable and sandboxed

Installation & Use

Clone this repo to somewhere obvious, like ~/quipper-language/.

Install or update to the latest version of cabal-install and ghc from your package manager.

Double-check the dependencies list below, and ensure you have them all installed under your ~/.cabal directory. cabal install ... manually as needed.

Run make in the parent directory.

Add quipper/scripts/ from the repo to your PATH. This provides wrapper scripts around GHC and GHCi which loads all the necessary libraries for quantum hacking.

You can then call the Quipper compiler by:

$ quipper And_gate.hs

Or run quipper in interactive mode:

$ quipperi
...
GHCi, version 7.6.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
