Abstract
A quantum computer simulator is presented. This simulator is an engineering work and no deep understanding of quantum mechanics is required from the user. The simulator is based on the circuit model of quantum computation in which quantum gates act on quantum registers which comprise a number of quantum bits (qubits). The inputs to the simulator are the initial states of the qubits that form a quantum register and the quantum gates applied at each computation step. The inputs are entered through a graphical user interface. The outputs of the simulator are the matrices that represent the quantum register state at each quantum computation step and graphical outputs that show the probability of measuring each one of the possible quantum register base states and the phase of each state at each computation step. The well-known Deutsch's algorithm and the quantum Fourier transform, which is the base of many quantum algorithms, are presented using this simulator. Furthermore, the generation and variation of entanglement during quantum computations can be calculated using this simulator. The quantum computer simulator is a useful tool for the study of quantum computer circuits, quantum computing, and the development of new quantum algorithms.
