### marginal\_counts
<Function id="qiskit.result.marginal_counts" github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.46/qiskit/result/utils.py" signature="qiskit.result.marginal_counts(result, indices=None, inplace=False, format_marginal=False, marginalize_memory=True)">
Marginalize counts from an experiment over some indices of interest.
**Parameters**
* **result** ([*dict*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)") *|*[*Result*](qiskit.result.Result "qiskit.result.result.Result")) – result to be marginalized (a Result object or a dict(str, int) of counts).
* **indices** ([*List*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.List "(in Python v3.12)")*\[*[*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")*] | None*) – The bit positions of interest to marginalize over. If `None` (default), do not marginalize at all.
* **inplace** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – Default: False. Operates on the original Result argument if True, leading to loss of original Job Result. It has no effect if `result` is a dict.
* **format\_marginal** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – Default: False. If True, takes the output of marginalize and formats it with placeholders between cregs and for non-indices.
* **marginalize\_memory** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)") *| None*) – If True, then also marginalize the memory field (if present). If False, remove the memory field from the result. If None, leave the memory field as is.
**Returns**
**A Result object or a dictionary with**
the observed counts, marginalized to only account for frequency of observations of bits of interest.
**Return type**
[Result](qiskit.result.Result "qiskit.result.Result") or [dict](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)")([str](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.12)"), [int](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)"))
**Raises**
[**QiskitError**](exceptions#qiskit.exceptions.QiskitError "qiskit.exceptions.QiskitError") – in case of invalid indices to marginalize over.
</Function>
### marginal\_distribution
<Function id="qiskit.result.marginal_distribution" github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.46/qiskit/result/utils.py" signature="qiskit.result.marginal_distribution(counts, indices=None, format_marginal=False)">
Marginalize counts from an experiment over some indices of interest.
Unlike [`marginal_counts()`](#qiskit.result.marginal_counts "qiskit.result.marginal_counts") this function respects the order of the input `indices`. If the input `indices` list is specified then the order the bit indices are specified will be the output order of the bitstrings in the marginalized output.
**Parameters**
* **counts** ([*dict*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)")) – result to be marginalized
* **indices** ([*Sequence*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Sequence "(in Python v3.12)")*\[*[*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")*] | None*) – The bit positions of interest to marginalize over. If `None` (default), do not marginalize at all.
* **format\_marginal** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – Default: False. If True, takes the output of marginalize and formats it with placeholders between cregs and for non-indices.
**Returns**
A marginalized dictionary
**Return type**
[dict](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)")([str](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.12)"), [int](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)"))
**Raises**
* [**QiskitError**](exceptions#qiskit.exceptions.QiskitError "qiskit.exceptions.QiskitError") – If any value in `indices` is invalid or the `counts` dict
* **is invalid.** –
</Function>
### marginal\_memory
<Function id="qiskit.result.marginal_memory" github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.46/qiskit/result/utils.py" signature="qiskit.result.marginal_memory(memory, indices=None, int_return=False, hex_return=False, avg_data=False, parallel_threshold=1000)">
Marginalize shot memory
This function is multithreaded and will launch a thread pool with threads equal to the number of CPUs by default. You can tune the number of threads with the `RAYON_NUM_THREADS` environment variable. For example, setting `RAYON_NUM_THREADS=4` would limit the thread pool to 4 threads.
**Parameters**
* **memory** ([*List*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.List "(in Python v3.12)")*\[*[*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.12)")*] |* [*ndarray*](https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/generated/numpy.ndarray.html#numpy.ndarray "(in NumPy v2.0)")) – The input memory list, this is either a list of hexadecimal strings to be marginalized representing measure level 2 memory or a numpy array representing level 0 measurement memory (single or avg) or level 1 measurement memory (single or avg).
* **indices** ([*List*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.List "(in Python v3.12)")*\[*[*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")*] | None*) – The bit positions of interest to marginalize over. If `None` (default), do not marginalize at all.
* **int\_return** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – If set to `True` the output will be a list of integers. By default the return type is a bit string. This and `hex_return` are mutually exclusive and can not be specified at the same time. This option only has an effect with memory level 2.
* **hex\_return** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – If set to `True` the output will be a list of hexadecimal strings. By default the return type is a bit string. This and `int_return` are mutually exclusive and can not be specified at the same time. This option only has an effect with memory level 2.
* **avg\_data** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – If a 2 dimensional numpy array is passed in for `memory` this can be set to `True` to indicate it’s a avg level 0 data instead of level 1 single data.
* **parallel\_threshold** ([*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")) – The number of elements in `memory` to start running in multiple threads. If `len(memory)` is >= this value, the function will run in multiple threads. By default this is set to 1000.
**Returns**
The list of marginalized memory
**Return type**
marginal\_memory
**Raises**
[**ValueError**](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#ValueError "(in Python v3.12)") – if both `int_return` and `hex_return` are set to `True`
</Function>
