cirq.measure

cirq.measure(*qubits, key: Optional[str] = None, invert_mask: Tuple[bool, ...] = ()) → cirq.ops.gate_operation.GateOperation[source]

Returns a single MeasurementGate applied to all the given qubits.

The qubits are measured in the computational basis.

Parameters:
  • *qubits – The qubits that the measurement gate should measure.
  • key – The string key of the measurement. If this is None, it defaults to a comma-separated list of the target qubits’ str values.
  • invert_mask – A list of Truthy or Falsey values indicating whether the corresponding qubits should be flipped. None indicates no inverting should be done.
Returns:

An operation targeting the given qubits with a measurement.
Raises:

ValueError if the qubits are not instances of QubitId.
