QNickel4 | Quantum Computing and Programming Workshop | April 29 – May 17, 2023
We are pleased to announce the fourth QNickel workshop, which is being organized by QIran this time. Join us for an introductory workshop on “Quantum Computing and Programming”, which focuses on Oracle’s quantum algorithms. You will learn the basics of quantum computing and how to write simple quantum programs.
We invite anyone interested in learning more about quantum computers to join us. During the workshop, we will use QWorld’s Nickel Introductory Training. While the educational materials are in English, lectures and mentoring will be provided in Persian. In addition to lectures, there will be Lab sessions focused on coding. We will use a dedicated Discord server to host the workshop.
Participants are expected to follow the workshop materials, attend the lectures, and complete the assignments on their own. The workshop will be held over 9 days, with approximately 14 hours of training.
The participants completing the workshop successfully will receive a diploma!
The participants are expected to work individually at least 16 hours to complete the following sections of Nickel: Conventional Quantum Algorithms in Qiskit, Solving Max-Cut problem using Grover’s Search in Cirq
https://gitlab.com/qworld/nickel
The tutorial is a collection of Jupyter notebooks. We use python to solve the tasks and Qiskit library to code quantum programs. The participants should know at least one programming language, and they should make themselves familiar with Python before the workshop if they do not know Python. We will share the installation instructions and a few notebooks on basics of mathematics and participants should review them before the workshop starts.

Code of Conduct
Our event is dedicated to providing a harassment-free workshop experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), or technology choices. We do not tolerate harassment of event participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any event venue, including talks, workshops, parties, Twitter and other online media. Event participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event.
We respect the minors (children under age 18) and we must make every effort to protect their rights. All private relationships, private communications (including social media channels), or sexual contacts with minors are prohibited.
The default communication channel between the organizers and participants is e-mail. Except filing the application form, the contact info of any attendee or participant cannot be requested by any person from organizer side (i.e., mentor, educator, speaker, organizer, sponsor, or volunteer). On the other hand, any person from organizer side may share his or her contact info with a participant who is not a minor, upon request by the participant.
A minor can access the emails of the main organizers on the event’s website. If a minor interested in working with a person from organizer side for scientific or pedagogical purpose, then he or she should read this document before contacting this person:
