Setup

cmake -B build
cmake --build build --parallel 8

This creates the parser executable.

./parser /path/to/circuit.qasm

---

Interpreter

To build the interpreter, you must have qpp installed. Execute

cmake -B build -DWITH_INTERPRETER=ON
cmake --build build --parallel 8

This creates the interpreter executable. Usage:

./interpreter /path/to/circuit.qasm

If the OpenQASM 3.0 file contains n input variables, then the interpreter requires exactly n additional commandline arguments to specify their values. For example, if the file contains

input float[32] fl;
input bool bl;

Then it could be executed with

./interpreter example.qasm "pi/2" "true"

---

Unit testing

cmake --build build --target unit_tests --parallel 8
ctest --test-dir build

---

Notes

1. The interpreter is implemented to exclude the endpoints of ranges. As of August 10, 2022, in the OpenQASM 3.0 live specification, range endpoints are included.

2. The OpenQASM 3.0 standard library defines the u3 and u2 gates differently than the Qiskit specifications.

Gate	OpenQASM 3.0	Qiskit	Phase inconsistency
u3
u2
