Loading OQFT Circuits Into Qiskit, the Same CX Count After Transpiling but Less Than a Third of the Depth

OQFT writes OpenQASM 3 with three gates from the standard library, h, cp and swap. Anything that reads OpenQASM 3 can take it. Qiskit is the toolkit most people will try first, so this example loads OQFT’s output there, checks it, and runs it through Qiskit’s transpiler.

You need Python with qiskit and qiskit_qasm3_import, and oqft on your PATH.

pip install qiskit qiskit_qasm3_import

Qiskit on oqft.com
