Parameters:

  • C – The CSScode.

  • indices – The indices of the logical operator to be measured out.

  • basis – The basis of the measurement.

  • depth – Controls the size of the ancilla code used for measurement.

  • return_data – Whether to return a MergeResult or a CSScode object.

Returns:
