# StatePreparation¶

class StatePreparation(params, num_qubits=None, inverse=False, label=None)[source]

Bases : Gate

Complex amplitude state preparation.

Class that implements the (complex amplitude) state preparation of some flexible collection of qubit registers.

Paramètres
• params (Union[str, list, int, Statevector]) –

• Statevector: Statevector to initialize to.

• list: vector of complex amplitudes to initialize to.

• string: labels of basis states of the Pauli eigenstates Z, X, Y. See Statevector.from_label(). Notice the order of the labels is reversed with respect to the qubit index to be applied to. Example label “01” initializes the qubit zero to $$|1\rangle$$ and the qubit one to $$|0\rangle$$.

• int: an integer that is used as a bitmap indicating which qubits to initialize to $$|1\rangle$$. Example: setting params to 5 would initialize qubit 0 and qubit 2 to $$|1\rangle$$ and qubit 1 to $$|0\rangle$$.

• num_qubits (Optional[int]) – This parameter is only used if params is an int. Indicates the total number of qubits in the initialize call. Example: initialize covers 5 qubits and params is 3. This allows qubits 0 and 1 to be initialized to $$|1\rangle$$ and the remaining 3 qubits to be initialized to $$|0\rangle$$.

• inverse (bool) – if True, the inverse state is constructed.

• label (Optional[str]) – An optional label for the gate

QiskitErrornum_qubits parameter used when params is not an integer

When a Statevector argument is passed the state is prepared using a recursive initialization algorithm, including optimizations, from [1], as well as some additional optimizations including removing zero rotations and double cnots.
