Modifying Internal scqubits Settings¶

User Accessible Parameters¶

scqubits has a few internal parameters that can be changed by the user:

Setting	Options	Description
`FILE_FORMAT`	FileType.h5, FileType.csv	Switches between supported file formats for writing data to disk.
`PROGRESSBAR_DISABLED`	True / False	Switches display of progressbar on/off.
`AUTORUN_SWEEP`	True / False (default: True)	Whether to generate `ParameterSweep` immediately upon initialization
`DISPATCH_ENABLED`	True / False (default: True)	Whether to use central dispatch system
`MULTIPROC`	str	‘pathos’ (default) or ‘multiprocessing’
`NUM_CPUS`	int	number of cores to be used in parallelization (default: 1)

Users can also setup units of the energy scales. This is discussed in the Units section of the user guide.

Note

The DEFAULT_ENERGY_UNIT setting is no longer used - see Units for information on how to set energy units.

Modifying the settings is simple, for example:

scqubits.settings.PROGRESSBAR_DISABLED = True
