Methods

__init__(backend_name, backend_version, …)	Initialize self.
data([experiment])	Get the raw data for an experiment.
from_dict(data)	Create a new ExperimentResultData object from a dictionary.
get_counts([experiment])	Get the histogram data of an experiment.
get_memory([experiment])	Get the sequence of memory states (readouts) for each shot The data from the experiment is a list of format [‚00000‘, ‚01000‘, ‚10100‘, ‚10100‘, ‚11101‘, ‚11100‘, ‚00101‘, …, ‚01010‘]
get_statevector([experiment, decimals])	Get the final statevector of an experiment.
get_unitary([experiment, decimals])	Get the final unitary of an experiment.
to_dict()	Return a dictionary format representation of the Result

data(experiment=None)

Get the raw data for an experiment.

Note this data will be a single classical and quantum register and in a format required by the results schema. We recommend that most users use the get_xxx method, and the data will be post-processed for the data type.

Parameter

experiment (str or QuantumCircuit or Schedule or int or None) – the index of the experiment. Several types are accepted for convenience:: * str: the name of the experiment. * QuantumCircuit: the name of the circuit instance will be used. * Schedule: the name of the schedule instance will be used. * int: the position of the experiment. * None: if there is only one experiment, returns it.

Rückgabe

A dictionary of results data for an experiment. The data depends on the backend it ran on and the settings of meas_level, meas_return and memory.

QASM backends return a dictionary of dictionary with the key ‚counts‘ and with the counts, with the second dictionary keys containing a string in hex format (0x123) and values equal to the number of times this outcome was measured.

Statevector backends return a dictionary with key ‚statevector‘ and values being a list[list[complex components]] list of 2^num_qubits complex amplitudes. Where each complex number is represented as a 2 entry list for each component. For example, a list of [0.5+1j, 0-1j] would be represented as [[0.5, 1], [0, -1]].

Unitary backends return a dictionary with key ‚unitary‘ and values being a list[list[list[complex components]]] list of 2^num_qubits x 2^num_qubits complex amplitudes in a two entry list for each component. For example if the amplitude is [[0.5+0j, 0-1j], …] the value returned will be [[[0.5, 0], [0, -1]], …].

The simulator backends also have an optional key ‚snapshots‘ which returns a dict of snapshots specified by the simulator backend. The value is of the form dict[slot: dict[str: array]] where the keys are the requested snapshot slots, and the values are a dictionary of the snapshots.

Rückgabetyp

dict

Verursacht

QiskitError – if data for the experiment could not be retrieved.

classmethod from_dict(data)

Create a new ExperimentResultData object from a dictionary.

Parameter

data (dict) – A dictionary representing the Result to create. It will be in the same format as output by to_dict().

Rückgabe

The Result object from the input dictionary.

Rückgabetyp

Result

get_counts(experiment=None)

Get the histogram data of an experiment.

Parameter

experiment (str or QuantumCircuit or Schedule or int or None) – the index of the experiment, as specified by data([experiment]).

Rückgabe

int] or list[dict[str:int]]: a dictionary or a list of

dictionaries. A dictionary has the counts for each qubit with the keys containing a string in binary format and separated according to the registers in circuit (e.g. 0100 1110). The string is little-endian (cr[0] on the right hand side).

Rückgabetyp

dict[str

get_memory(experiment=None)

Get the sequence of memory states (readouts) for each shot The data from the experiment is a list of format [‚00000‘, ‚01000‘, ‚10100‘, ‚10100‘, ‚11101‘, ‚11100‘, ‚00101‘, …, ‚01010‘]

Parameter

experiment (str or QuantumCircuit or Schedule or int or None) – the index of the experiment, as specified by data().

Rückgabe

Either the list of each outcome, formatted according to

registers in circuit or a complex numpy np.ndarray with shape:

meas_level	meas_return	shape
0	single	np.ndarray[shots, memory_slots, memory_slot_size]
0	avg	np.ndarray[memory_slots, memory_slot_size]
