Creating a quantum circuit using the Composer

In this section, we will review the Composer layout so that you can understand the functionality and behavior of the Composer when creating or editing your quantum circuits. Here, you will also create a few circuits, leveraging the visualization features from the Composer to make it easy for you to understand how quantum circuits are created. So, let's start at the beginning: by launching the Composer editor.

Launching the Composer editor

To create a quantum circuit, let's first start by opening up the Circuit Composer. To open the Composer view, click on the Circuit Composer icon located on the left panel as shown in the following screenshot:
