CNOT_X_basis

forest.benchmarking.classical_logic.CNOT_X_basis(control, target) → pyquil.quil.Program

The CNOT in the X basis, i.e.

CNOTX = |+X+| * I + |-X-| * Z

where |+> and |-> are the +/- eigenstate of the Pauli X operator, and * denotes a tensor product.

Parameters:

• control – qubit label
• target – qubit label

Returns:
