# IfElseOp
<Class id="qiskit.circuit.IfElseOp" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.24/qiskit/circuit/controlflow/if_else.py" signature="IfElseOp(condition, true_body, false_body=None, label=None)" modifiers="class">
Bases: [`ControlFlowOp`](qiskit.circuit.ControlFlowOp "qiskit.circuit.controlflow.control_flow.ControlFlowOp")
A circuit operation which executes a program (`true_body`) if a provided condition (`condition`) evaluates to true, and optionally evaluates another program (`false_body`) otherwise.
**Parameters**
* **condition** (*Tuple\[*[*ClassicalRegister*](qiskit.circuit.ClassicalRegister "qiskit.circuit.classicalregister.ClassicalRegister") *|*[*Clbit*](qiskit.circuit.Clbit "qiskit.circuit.classicalregister.Clbit")*, int]*) A condition to be evaluated at circuit runtime which, if true, will trigger the evaluation of `true_body`. Can be specified as either a tuple of a `ClassicalRegister` to be tested for equality with a given `int`, or as a tuple of a `Clbit` to be compared to either a `bool` or an `int`.
* **true\_body** ([*QuantumCircuit*](qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit "qiskit.circuit.quantumcircuit.QuantumCircuit")) A program to be executed if `condition` evaluates to true.
* **false\_body** ([*QuantumCircuit*](qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit "qiskit.circuit.quantumcircuit.QuantumCircuit") *| None*) A optional program to be executed if `condition` evaluates to false.
* **label** (*str | None*) An optional label for identifying the instruction.
If provided, `false_body` must be of the same `num_qubits` and `num_clbits` as `true_body`.
The classical bits used in `condition` must be a subset of those attached to the circuit on which this `IfElseOp` will be appended.
**Circuit symbol:**
```python

q_1: ┤1 ├

q_2: ┤2 ├

└───────────┘

Create a new instruction.
**Parameters**

* **params** (*list\[int|float|complex|str|ndarray|list|*[*ParameterExpression*](qiskit.circuit.ParameterExpression "qiskit.circuit.ParameterExpression")*]*) list of parameters
* **duration** (*int or float*) instructions duration. it must be integer if `unit` is dt
* **unit** (*str*) time unit of duration
* **label** (*str or None*) An optional label for identifying the instruction.
**Raises**
* **CircuitError** when the register is not in the correct format.
* **TypeError** when the optional label is provided, but it is not a string.

Set a classical equality condition on this instruction between the register or cbit `classical` and value `val`.
<Admonition title="Note" type="note">
This is a setter method, not an additive one. Calling this multiple times will silently override any previously set condition; it does not stack.
</Admonition>
</Function>
<span id="qiskit-circuit-ifelseop-copy" />
### copy
<Function id="qiskit.circuit.IfElseOp.copy" signature="IfElseOp.copy(name=None)">
Copy of the instruction.
**Parameters**
**name** (*str*) name to be given to the copied circuit, if `None` then the name stays the same.
**Returns**
a copy of the current instruction, with the name updated if it was provided
**Return type**

</Function>
<span id="qiskit-circuit-ifelseop-inverse" />
### inverse
<Function id="qiskit.circuit.IfElseOp.inverse" signature="IfElseOp.inverse()">
Invert this instruction.
If the instruction is composite (i.e. has a definition), then its definition will be recursively inverted.
Special instructions inheriting from Instruction can implement their own inverse (e.g. T and Tdg, Barrier, etc.)
**Returns**
a fresh instruction for the inverse
**Return type**
[qiskit.circuit.Instruction](qiskit.circuit.Instruction "qiskit.circuit.Instruction")
**Raises**
**CircuitError** if the instruction is not composite and an inverse has not been implemented for it.
