## Description

xq-py is a numerical quantum computing library and software emulator used to execute quantum algorithms. It functions as a quantum virtual machine that simulates quantum circuits and state vectors through the use of linear algebra and complex number arrays.

The project provides a virtual environment for developing and verifying quantum logic. It models multi-qubit systems by utilizing tensor-product expansion and unitary gate applications to simulate quantum state vectors and calculate probabilistic state collapse.

The simulation is supported by a numerical backend that handles the matrix-based state transformations and floating-point mathematics required for quantum computation emulation.
