Bases: `object`
|
||
|
||
A factory class for convenient automatic selection of an Evolution algorithm based on the Operator to be converted.
|
||
|
||
## Methods
|
||
|
||
### build
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.operators.evolutions.EvolutionFactory.build" signature="EvolutionFactory.build(operator=None)" modifiers="static">
|
||
A factory method for convenient automatic selection of an Evolution algorithm based on the Operator to be converted.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
**operator** (`Optional`\[`OperatorBase`]) – the Operator being evolved
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
the `EvolutionBase` best suited to evolve operator.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
[EvolutionBase](qiskit.aqua.operators.evolutions.EvolutionBase "qiskit.aqua.operators.evolutions.EvolutionBase")
|
||
|
||
**Raises**
|
||
|
||
**ValueError** – If operator is not of a composition for which we know the best Evolution method.
