assemble
assemble()
Assemble a QasmQobjInstruction
Return type
Instruction
broadcast_arguments
broadcast_arguments(qargs, cargs)
Validation and handling of the arguments and its relationship.
For example, cx([q[0],q[1]], q[2]) means cx(q[0], q[2]); cx(q[1], q[2]). This method yields the arguments in the right grouping. In the given example:
in: [[q[0],q[1]], q[2]],[]
outs: [q[0], q[2]], []
[q[1], q[2]], []The general broadcasting rules are:
If len(qargs) == 1:
[q[0], q[1]] -> [q[0]],[q[1]]If len(qargs) == 2:
[[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[1]] [[q[0]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[0], r[1]] [[q[0], q[1]], [r[0]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[0]]If len(qargs) >= 3:
[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]], ...] -> [q[0], r[0], ...], [q[1], r[1], ...]
Parameters
- qargs (
List) – List of quantum bit arguments. - cargs (
List) – List of classical bit arguments.
Return type
Tuple[List, List]
Returns
A tuple with single arguments.
Raises
CircuitError – If the input is not valid. For example, the number of arguments does not match the gate expectation.
c_if
c_if(classical, val)
Add classical condition on register classical and value val.
compile
compile()
Parses and creates the logical circuit
control
control(num_ctrl_qubits=1, label=None, ctrl_state=None)
Return controlled version of gate. See ControlledGate for usage.
Parameters
- num_ctrl_qubits (
Optional[int]) – number of controls to add to gate (default=1) - label (
Optional[str]) – optional gate label - ctrl_state (
Union[int,str,None]) – The control state in decimal or as a bitstring (e.g. ‘111’). If None, use 2**num_ctrl_qubits-1.
Returns
Controlled version of gate. This default algorithm uses num_ctrl_qubits-1 ancillae qubits so returns a gate of size num_qubits + 2*num_ctrl_qubits - 1.
Return type
Raises
QiskitError – unrecognized mode or invalid ctrl_state
copy
copy(name=None)
Copy of the instruction.
Parameters
name (str) – name to be given to the copied circuit, if None then the name stays the same.
Returns
a copy of the current instruction, with the name
updated if it was provided
Return type
decompositions
Get the decompositions of the instruction from the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.
definition
Return definition in terms of other basic gates.
duration
Get the duration.
inverse
inverse()
Invert this instruction.
If the instruction is composite (i.e. has a definition), then its definition will be recursively inverted.
Special instructions inheriting from Instruction can implement their own inverse (e.g. T and Tdg, Barrier, etc.)
Returns
a fresh instruction for the inverse
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – if the instruction is not composite and an inverse has not been implemented for it.
is_parameterized

a new instruction with sub-instructions
reversed.
Return type
network
Returns the logical network
params
return instruction params.
power
power(exponent)

Returns
To which to_matrix is self.to_matrix^exponent.
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – If Gate is not unitary
qasm
qasm()
Return a default OpenQASM string for the instruction.

The list of qregs used by the classicalfunction
repeat
repeat(n)
Creates an instruction with gate repeated n amount of times.
Parameters

sub-instructions reversed.
