/demo/demo.sln - Run the project - you should see the following output (press any key between stages):
Measurements are in the computational basis, and have type: Microsoft.Quantum.Simulation.Core.Result. This time we measured a Zero
========== X Gate ==========
Equivalent to a classical NOT gate on computational basis
X-Gate on a Zero returns a: One
X-Gate on a One returns a: Zero
========== Z Gate ==========
Doesn't change qubits in a known state (i.e. without superposition)
Z-Gate on a Zero returns a: Zero
Z-Gate on a One returns a: One
========== Hadamard Gate ==========
Puts a qubit in a superposition - Measurements are equally likely to be Zero or One
Hadamard-Gate on a Zero measures One 51% of the time
Hadamard-Gate on a One measures One 50% of the time
========== CNOT Gate ==========
Target is flipped when Control is One
Target: Zero, Control: Zero -> measures Target: Zero
Target: Zero, Control: One -> measures Target: One
Target: One, Control: Zero -> measures Target: One
Target: One, Control: One -> measures Target: Zero
========== Bell State & Teleportation ==========
The following uses a Hadamard gate (no entanglement), to get a superposition of states that, when measured, agree ~50% of the time
Init:Zero 0s=502 1s=498 agree=50%
Init:One 0s=485 1s=515 agree=48%
Now we add a CNOT Gate to get entanglement, and get agreement 100% of the time
Press any key...
Init:Zero 0s=515 1s=485 agree=100%
Init:One 0s=516 1s=484 agree=100%
