loom.interpreter.applicator.generate_syndromes.generate_syndromes(interpretation_step, stabilizers, block, stab_measurements)

Generate new Syndromes for the given stabilizers and its associated block. Stabilizers are passed explicitly as they follow the same order as the stab_measurements variable used to compute the Syndromes.

CAUTION: This function pops the entries from the stabilizer_updates field of the interpretation step to compute corrections. This may cause issues in the future if the information in this field also needs to be accessed somewhere else.

Parameters:

• interpretation_step (InterpretationStep) – The updated interpretation step implementing the operation

• stabilizers (tuple[Stabilizer, ...]) – Stabilizers that were measured, results are included in stab_measurements

• block (Block) – Block containing the stabilizers

• stab_measurements (tuple[tuple[Cbit, ...], ...]) – Measurements used to create the syndromes. Each index contains a tuple of Cbits associated to the stabilizer at the same index in stabilizers.

Returns:

Syndromes created for the stabilizers, they are returned in the same order as the stabilizers are given.

Return type:

tuple[Syndrome, …]
