qrisp.QuantumCircuit.to_op

QuantumCircuit.to_op(name=None)

Method to return an Operation object generated out of this QuantumCircuit.

Operation objects can be appended to other QuantumCircuits.

An alias for Qiskit compatibility is the to_gate method.

Parameters

namestring, optional

The name of the gate. By default, the QuantumCircuit’s name will be used.

Returns

Operation

The Operation defined by this QuantumCircuit.

Examples

>>> from qrisp import QuantumCircuit
>>> qc_0 = QuantumCircuit(4)
>>> qc_0.x(qc.qubits)
>>> operation = qc_0.to_gate()
>>> qc_1 = QuantumCircuit(4)
>>> qc_1.append(operation, qc_1.qubits)
