OpenQASM & Hardware

FQkit can export any circuit to OpenQASM 2.0, the open standard that Qiskit reads. From your own Python you can also submit that circuit to a real machine and check the job while it waits in the queue.

Export a circuit

from fqkit import QuantumCircuit, Hadamard, CNOT
 
qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
qc.add_gate(Hadamard(), [0])
qc.add_gate(CNOT(), [0, 1])
 
print(qc.to_qasm())

OPENQASM 2.0;
include "qelib1.inc";
qreg q[2];
creg c[2];
h q[0];
cx q[0], q[1];
measure q -> c;

Pass measure=False to export the unitary part only (no measurement):

qc.to_qasm(measure=False)

Gate mapping

Parameters must be bound to numbers before exporting.

Run it in Qiskit

Install the free, open-source Qiskit (pip install qiskit), then load the exported program:

from qiskit import QuantumCircuit as QiskitCircuit
from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector
 
qiskit_qc = QiskitCircuit.from_qasm_str(qc.to_qasm(measure=False))
print(Statevector.from_instruction(qiskit_qc).probabilities_dict())
# {'00': 0.5, '11': 0.5}

FQkit’s own simulator and Qiskit produce identical statevectors: the round trip is verified in the test suite.

Send it to a machine

Export is the text. A job is the step that uses your IBM or Amazon Braket account, waits in the vendor’s queue, and returns counts. That walkthrough is the Hardware section: accounts, runtime, job submission, and results.
