This list is great, but appears to be a little out of date. A new crop of programming tools has recently emerged as the field grows from academia into industry efforts:

Forest http://forest.rigetti.com is an open source Python toolkit out of the startup Rigetti Computing (full disclosure I'm a co-founder of this project). Here's a link to a recent demo and tutorial:

ProjectQ is another open source Python project out of ETH, and LIQUi|> is an F# simulator from Microsoft's quantum research group.

These would be the best place to start to see the cutting edge of developments in quantum programming.



Thanks for sharing. This list just happened to be the first thing I found that looked really useful, when I went looking for a list of QC tools earlier. Like a lot of the people in this thread (apparently) I don't know much about QC right now and am looking to get started learning about it. But since actual quantum computers are a bit hard to come by at the moment, I figured some kind of simulator(s) existed.


The OP's link is actually a wiki page. If you find it out of date, I encourage you to enrich it with your findings.
