Sampler base class

Base class of Sampler that calculates quasi-probabilities of bitstrings from quantum circuits.

Parameters

  • circuits – Quantum circuits to be executed.
  • parameters – Parameters of each of the quantum circuits. Defaults to [circ.parameters for circ in circuits].
  • options – Default options.

Raises

ValueError – For mismatch of circuits and parameters list.


Methods

close

BaseSampler.close()

Close the session and free resources

run

BaseSampler.run(circuits, parameter_values=None, **run_options)

Run the job of the sampling of bitstrings.

Parameters

  • circuits – One of more circuit objects.
  • parameter_values – Parameters to be bound to the circuit.
  • run_options – Backend runtime options used for circuit execution.

Returns

The job object of the result of the sampler. The i-th result corresponds to circuits[i] evaluated with parameters bound as parameter_values[i].

Raises

ValueError – Invalid arguments are given.

set_options

BaseSampler.set_options(**fields)

Set options values for the estimator.

Parameters

**fields – The fields to update the options


Attributes

circuits

Quantum circuits to be sampled.

Returns

The quantum circuits to be sampled.

options

Return options values for the estimator.

Return type

parameters

Parameters of quantum circuits.

Returns

List of the parameters in each quantum circuit.
