class Barrier(Operation):
"""Barrier operation.
A barrier is a special operation that does not affect the quantum state or
the execution of a circuit, but it prevents compression or optimization
operation from being applied across it.
Examples:
Adding Barrier operation to the Circuit (The args can be: range, list,
tuple, set or int)
>>> from mimiqcircuits import *
>>> c= Circuit()
>>> c.push(Barrier(1), 1)
2-qubit circuit with 1 instructions:
└── Barrier @ q[1]
<BLANKLINE>
>>> from mimiqcircuits import *
>>> c= Circuit()
>>> c.push(Barrier(1), range(0,4))
4-qubit circuit with 4 instructions:
├── Barrier @ q[0]
├── Barrier @ q[1]
├── Barrier @ q[2]
└── Barrier @ q[3]
<BLANKLINE>
Adding Barrier to the circuit as a multi-qubits gate
>>> from mimiqcircuits import *
>>> c= Circuit()
>>> c.push(Barrier(5),1,2,3,4,5)
6-qubit circuit with 1 instructions:
└── Barrier @ q[1,2,3,4,5]
