How to use Quirk
Quirk is a drag-and-drop simulator designed for quantum circuits, making it easy to manipulate and explore small quantum systems. Its visual interface provides an intuitive understanding of the circuit's behavior, with real-time updates on the state as you modify the circuit. Using Quirk primarily involves dragging gates from the toolbars, placing them on the circuit, and observing their states in the displays on the left and right sides of the circuit. You can access a live version of Quirk at algassert.com/quirk, or you can download the code from github.com/Strilanc/Quirk to build your own version
