qiskit.synthesis.generate_basic_approximations

generate_basic_approximations(basis_gates, depth, filename=None)

Generates a list of GateSequence``s with the gates in ``basic_gates.

Parameters

• basis_gates (list[str | Gate]) -- The gates from which to create the sequences of gates.

• depth (int) -- The maximum depth of the approximations.

• filename (str | None) -- If provided, the basic approximations are stored in this file.

Returns

List of GateSequences using the gates in basic_gates.

Raises

ValueError -- If basis_gates contains an invalid gate identifier.

Return type

list[GateSequence]
