Could arbitrary angles be supported within the compiler when using QASM circuits?
Some QASM workloads and benchmark generators (like QASMBench, MQTBench) produce QASM circuits that have arbitrary rotations (e.g. - rz(1.0232324) q[0];). To use the compiler with such arbitrary rotations, I had to modify my QASM circuits to approximate the arbitrary rotations with angles of the form (n*pi/m). An example of such an approximation can be -
rz(1.5812683023068625) q0[7];->rz(7121399337041963*pi/14148475504056880) q0[7];
Can such a transformation be supported within the compiler (until arbitrary rotations can be natively supported)?
