Microsoft.Quantum.Bitwise namespace

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This documentation refers to the Classic QDK, which has been replaced by the Modern QDK.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.

This namespace contains functions for acting on the bitwise representation of classical data types.

Description

A lot of functions in this namespace offer the same functionality as the bitwise expressions.

Functions

Name Summary
And Returns the bitwise AND of two integers. This performs the same computation as the built-in &&& operator.
LeftShiftedI Shifts the bitwise representation of a number left by a given number of bits.
LeftShiftedL Shifts the bitwise representation of a number left by a given number of bits.
Not Returns the bitwise NOT of an integer. This performs the same computation as the built-in ~~~ operator.
Or Returns the bitwise OR of two integers. This performs the same computation as the built-in ||| operator.
Parity Returns the bitwise PARITY of an integer.
RightShiftedI Shifts the bitwise representation of a number right by a given number of bits.
RightShiftedL Shifts the bitwise representation of a number right by a given number of bits.
XBits Returns an integer representing the X bits of an array of Pauli operators.
Xor Returns the bitwise exclusive-OR (XOR) of two integers. This performs the same computation as the built-in ^^^ operator.
ZBits Returns an integer representing the Z bits of an array of Pauli operators.
