Any review would be welcome ! I especially worry to know wether I might be too optimistic, and if this project interests the SymPy community.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm Laura, a first year student at the Ecole Polytechnique of Palaiseau, France. I would be delighted to involve into SymPy for the Gsoc 2015. I love the idea of an open-source (and pythonic one !) library of CAS. Having somehow worked with Maple at school (which I distasted), I was enthusiastic to discover SymPy, a valuable alternative.

I have reviewed the Gsoc Ideas page, and I would love to work on symbolic quantum computing. Although I haven't had the opportunity to take any official course in quantum mechanics yet (but this will occur this spring), I've successfully completed two school projects on quantum computing and I'm really deeply interested in that matter.
Looking at SymPy features in quantum computing, I realized that it looks very similar to my school project, although it was of course far less developed ! I coded indeed what I thought to be a "quantum computer emulation" (or "simulation"). Symbolic quantum computing sounds more appropriated.
I plan to look in detail into the SymPy implementation of quantum computing, in order to build a detailed proposal.
I have already thought of implementing some well-known (although quite simple) algorithms such as the Deutsch-Josza's or the Simon's one, because they could be helpful for a first insight into quantum circuits. I'm looking for other nice features to work on (quantum error correction, Solovay-Kitaev theorem, etc).

Are there high-priority features in quantum computing for SymPy ? Nonetheless, it looks like there are a bunch of things to fix and implement according to the documentation. So I wonder if it is up to date ?
