This directory contains a few select examples for what you are able to do with the pyquil API. To use these examples, we recommend that you actually clone the pyquil git repository or download it via this link. Furthermore, you will have to install pyquil and its requirements but also some additional requirements specific to the examples:

cd YOUR/LOCAL/PYQUIL
pip install -r examples/requirements.txt

where you must replace YOUR/LOCAL/PYQUIL with the path to where you downloaded/cloned pyquil to.
