## 📖 Quick Start

### 1. Quantum Circuit — Bell State

```python
from quant_gameth.quantum.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Simulator
from quant_gameth.quantum.measurement import sample_counts

qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
qc.h(0).cx(0, 1)           # Hadamard + CNOT → Bell state |Φ+⟩

sv = Simulator().run(qc)
counts = sample_counts(sv, n_shots=1024)
print(counts)               # {'00': ~512, '11': ~512}
```

### 2. Nash Equilibrium — Prisoner's Dilemma

```python
from quant_gameth.games.normal_form import NormalFormGame

game = NormalFormGame.prisoners_dilemma()
equilibria = game.find_nash()

for eq in equilibria:
    print(f"Strategies: {eq.strategies}")
    print(f"Payoffs:    {eq.payoffs}")
```

### 3. MaxCut with QAOA

```python
import numpy as np
from quant_gameth.solvers.maxcut import solve_maxcut

adj = np.array([[0,1,1],[1,0,1],[1,1,0]], dtype=float)
result = solve_maxcut(adj, method="qaoa", qaoa_depth=3)
print(f"Cut value: {result.metadata['cut_value']}")
print(f"Partition: {result.solution}")
```

### 4. Portfolio Optimization

```python
from quant_gameth.generators.market import generate_portfolio_data
from quant_gameth.solvers.portfolio import solve_portfolio

mu, sigma = generate_portfolio_data(n_assets=10, seed=42)
result = solve_portfolio(mu, sigma, risk_aversion=1.0, method="markowitz")
print(f"Optimal weights: {result.solution.round(4)}")
print(f"Sharpe ratio:    {result.metadata['sharpe_ratio']:.4f}")
```

```python
from quant_gameth.generators.puzzles import generate_sudoku
from quant_gameth.solvers.sudoku import solve_sudoku

board = generate_sudoku(difficulty="hard", seed=42)
result = solve_sudoku(board, method="backtracking")
print(result.solution.reshape(9, 9))
```

    problem_name="maxcut",
    sizes=[6, 8, 10, 12],
    methods=["qaoa", "annealing", "brute_force"],
    n_repeats=5,
