Overview

About

Maintained by Zengchao XuFirst published 2026-07-061 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides a comprehensive toolkit for quantum computing simulation and visualization within the R environment. The package enables users to initialize qubit states, construct custom quantum gates with both unitary transformation and visual parameters, and build full quantum circuits by sequentially adding gates. It includes predefined common gates (e.g., Hadamard, Pauli-X/Y/Z, Control-NOT, Control-Z) and supports direct plotting of circuits and individual gates for intuitive analysis.

Install

R (CRAN)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("Unitary", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-Unitary

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-Unitary

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
