Description: 
        # Qiskit QCGPU Provider
        
        This module contains [Qiskit](https://www.qiskit.org/) 
        simulators using the OpenCL based [QCGPU](https://qcgpu.github.io) library.
        
        This provider adds two quantum circuit simulators, which are:
        
        * Statevector simulator - returns the statevector of a quantum circuit applied to the |0> state
        * Qasm simulator - simulates a qasm quantum circuit that has been compiled to run on the simulator.
        
        These simulation backends take advantage of the GPU or other OpenCL devices.
        
        ## Installation
        
        First of all, you will have to have some OpenCL installation installed already.
        
        You can install this module from PyPI using pip:
        
        ```bash
        $ pip install qiskit-qcgpu-provider
        ```
        
        
        ## Usage
        
        The usage of this backend with Qiskit is shown in the [usage example](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-qcgpu-provider/tree/master/examples)
        
        For more information on Qiskit and quantum simulations, look at the Qiskit tutorials and the [Qiskit instructions page](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-terra)
        
        ## Benchmarking
        
        To benchmark this simulator against the `BasicAer` `qasm_simulator`,
        you can run
        
        ```bash
        $ python3 benchmark.py --samples 15  --qubits 5 --single True
        ```
