MeasureInteger operation
Warning
This documentation refers to the Classic QDK, which has been replaced by the Modern QDK.
Please see https://aka.ms/qdk.api for the API documentation for the Modern QDK.
Namespace: Microsoft.Quantum.Arithmetic
Package: Microsoft.Quantum.Standard
Measures the content of a quantum register and converts
it to an integer. The measurement is performed with respect
to the standard computational basis, i.e., the eigenbasis of PauliZ
.
operation MeasureInteger (target : Microsoft.Quantum.Arithmetic.LittleEndian) : Int
Input
target : LittleEndian
A quantum register in the little-endian encoding.
Output : Int
An unsigned integer that contains the measured value of target
.
Remarks
This operation resets its input register to the $\ket{00\cdots 0}$ state, suitable for releasing back to a target machine.
