QuantumOps (version 3.0.1)

GroversAlgorithm: GroversAlgorithm

Description

Applies Grover's search algorithm to a uniform ket to simulate a quantum search

Usage

GroversAlgorithm(n,w,iterations=n,printOutput=FALSE,plotOutput=FALSE,tag="")

Arguments

n

Number of qubits in the problem, not counting the extra ancillary qubit

w

Integer specifying the state to search for, between 0 and 2^n-1 where n is the number of qubits

iterations

Number of iterations to apply the oracle and diffusion, optimal is approximately n

printOutput

Boolean specifying if the measurement probabilities should be printed as search progresses

plotOutput

Boolean specifying if the output probabilities should be plotted to a graph

tag

String which is attached to output file name if plotOutput is TRUE

Value

Ket after a Grover search has been applied to it

Examples

# NOT RUN {
 GroversAlgorithm(7,0,14)
 GroversAlgorithm(7,0,14,printOutput=TRUE)
# }
