qiskit.dagcircuit.DAGNode

class DAGNode(type=None, op=None, name=None, qargs=None, cargs=None, wire=None, nid=- 1)

GitHub

Object to represent the information at a node in the DAGCircuit.

It is used as the return value from *_nodes() functions and can be supplied to functions that take a node.

Create a node

__init__

__init__(type=None, op=None, name=None, qargs=None, cargs=None, wire=None, nid=- 1)

Create a node


Methods

__init__([type, op, name, qargs, cargs, …])Create a node
semantic_eq(node1, node2[, bit_indices1, …])Check if DAG nodes are considered equivalent, e.g., as a node_match for nx.is_isomorphic.

Attributes

cargs
conditionReturns the condition of the node.op
name
opReturns the Instruction object corresponding to the op for the node, else None
qargsReturns list of Qubit, else an empty list.
sort_key
type
wireReturns the Bit object, else None.

condition

Returns the condition of the node.op

op

Returns the Instruction object corresponding to the op for the node, else None

qargs

Returns list of Qubit, else an empty list.

semantic_eq

static semantic_eq(node1, node2, bit_indices1=None, bit_indices2=None)

Check if DAG nodes are considered equivalent, e.g., as a node_match for nx.is_isomorphic.

Parameters

  • node1 (DAGNode) – A node to compare.
  • node2 (DAGNode) – The other node to compare.
  • bit_indices1 (dict) – Dictionary mapping Bit instances to their index within the circuit containing node1
  • bit_indices2 (dict) – Dictionary mapping Bit instances to their index within the circuit containing node2

Returns

If node1 == node2

Return type

Bool

wire

Returns the Bit object, else None.
