OpenQASM

OpenQASM is an imperative programming language designed for near-term quantum computing algorithms and applications. Quantum programs are described using the measurement-based quantum circuit model with support for classical feed-forward flow control based on measurement outcomes. OpenQASM presents a parameterized set of physical logic gates and concurrent real-time classical computations. Its main goal is to serve as an intermediate representation for higher-level compilers to communicate with quantum hardware. Allowances have been made for human usability. In particular, the language admits different representations of the same program as it is transformed from a high-level description to a pulse representation.
