4.2 Try qiskit yourself

I'd like you to try the qiskit tutorial yourself, now, in class.

  1. Do you have python?

  2. The following is a summary from https://qiskit.org/documentation/install.html

    I'm trying to avoid using anaconda, to keep things a little simpler.

#. Create a free IBM Quantum Experience account.

  1. pip install 'qiskit[visualization]'

#, run python.

  1. in python:

    import qiskit

  2. Follow the tutorial.

  3. Ask questions.
