# pytket.circuit.OpType

Enum for available operations compatible with the tket Circuit class.

Warning

All parametrised OpTypes which take angles (e.g. Rz, CPhase, FSim) expect parameters in multiples of pi (half-turns). This may differ from other quantum programming tools you have used, which have specified angles in radians, or perhaps even degrees. Therefore, for instance circuit.add_gate(OpType.Rx, 1, [0]) is equivalent in terms of the unitary to circuit.add_gate(OpType.X, [0])
