Abstract
According to the theoretical results, the quantum searching algorithm can be generalized by replacing the Walsh-Hadamard transform by almost any quantum-mechanical operation. We have implemented the generalized algorithm using nuclear magnetic resonance techniques with a solution of chloroform molecules. Experimental results show a good agreement between the theory and experiment.
