Efficient simulation of quantum computers is essential for the development and validation of near-term quantum devices and the research on quantum algorithms. Up to date, two main approaches to simulation were in use, based on either full state or single amplitude evaluation. We propose an algorithm that efficiently interpolates between these two possibilities. Our approach elucidates the connection between quantum circuit simulation and partial evaluation of expressions in tensor algebra.
