Bitwise Invert

The bitwise inversion operation receives a quantum register representing some number \(x\), and inverts its binary representation, namely, replaces \(1\)s by \(0\)s and vice versa. If the inplace flag is set to True, the original register is overridden by the result. Otherwise, it is available as an output.

Syntax

Function: BitwiseInvert

Parameters:

  • arg: RegisterUserInput (see RegisterUserInput)
  • output_size: Optional[PositiveInt]
  • inplace: bool = False

Register names:

  • arg: arg
  • result: inverted
