description | Abstract Quantum computing is a radical new paradigm for a technology that is capable to revolutionise information processing. Simulators of universal quantum computer are important for understanding the basic principles and operations of the current noisy intermediate‐scale quantum processors, and for building in future fault‐tolerant quantum computers. As next‐generation quantum technologies continue to advance, it is crucial to address the impact on education and training in quantum physics. The emergence of new industries driven by progress in quantum computing and simulation will create a demand for a specialised quantum workforce. In response to these challenges, the authors present Psitrum, an open‐source simulator for universal quantum computers. Psitrum serves as a powerful educational and research tool, enabling a diverse range of stakeholders to understand the fundamental principles and operations of quantum systems. By offering a comprehensive platform for emulating and debugging quantum algorithms through quantum circuits, Psitrum aids in the exploration and analysis of various quantum applications using both MATLAB and MATLAB application programming interface to use the software on other platforms. Psitrum software and source codes are fully available at GitHub. |
