Return the ordered PauliTable for the n-qubit Pauli basis.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **num\_qubits** (*int*) – number of qubits
|
||
* **weight** (*bool*) – if True optionally return the basis sorted by Pauli weight rather than lexicographic order (Default: False)
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
the PauliTable for the basis
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
