This sample implements a quantum random number generator using Q#, a good first example to teach how to use the language. |
This sample implements a quantum random number generator, a very simple application that is useful to learn how to write a first Q# program.
In the Q# code (Qrng.qs) you will find the Q# operation for extracting a random bit using quantum measurements over a qubit in superposition. For more information, you can take a look at the full tutorial.
You will also find a Q# operation that creates a random integer from 0 to a maximum integer by invoking several times the Q# operation for extracting a random bit.
- The Microsoft Quantum Development Kit.
To run the sample, use the dotnet run command from your terminal.
- Qrng.qs: Q# code implementing quantum operations for this sample.
- Qrng.csproj: Main Q# project for the sample.
