IntegerComparator
IntegerComparator(num_state_qubits=None, value=None, geq=True, name='cmp')
Bases: qiskit.circuit.library.blueprintcircuit.BlueprintCircuit
Integer Comparator.
Operator compares basis states against a classically given integer of fixed value and flips a target qubit if (or depending on the parameter geq):
This operation is based on two’s complement implementation of binary subtraction but only uses carry bits and no actual result bits. If the most significant carry bit (the results bit) is 1, the condition is True otherwise it is False.
Create a new fixed value comparator circuit.
Parameters
- num_state_qubits (
Optional[int]) – Number of state qubits. If this is set it will determine the number of qubits required for the circuit. - value (
Optional[int]) – The fixed value to compare with. - geq (
bool) – If True, evaluate a>=condition, else<. - name (
str) – Name of the circuit.

metadata
The user provided metadata associated with the circuit
The metadata for the circuit is a user provided dict of metadata for the circuit. It will not be used to influence the execution or operation of the circuit, but it is expected to be passed between all transforms of the circuit (ie transpilation) and that providers will associate any circuit metadata with the results it returns from execution of that circuit.
