Helping to make quantum computers @IBMResearch. Occasionally misusing them for fun and/or science. Two Ts and no Es. All nonsense here is my own doing

There are a lot of basic operations to play with in quantum computers. Here is a tweet-length summary of as many as will fit in a twitter thread.
There are also links to the #IBMQ 'Introduction to Quantum Circuits' where you can find out more.
The H or Hadamard gate rotates the states |0〉and |1〉to |+〉and |-〉, respectively. It is useful for making superpositions. As a Clifford gate, it is useful for moving information between the x and z bases. quantum-computing.ibm.com/support/guides…
