@nonhermitian, I suppose I do favor the less physics-y terminology for QI and QC. Sakurai and other texts of that period made a conscious break with earlier presentations, such as...

@ikkoham , I'm not sure that @nonhermitian was only concerned with computing expectations of things like `Counts`, although that was emphasized as a pain point. I was reading this as...

If I understand what's asked for here, I think `Estimator` is probably not the right tool. The documentation and implementation require that the observables be represented by lists of circuits...

> My point was can't we improve qiskit-terra's implementation of Estimator to be the "simple, uniform interface" that we want? I don't think so. Not in the sense that I...

I pushed a [branch implementing (some) methods for expectation_value](https://github.com/jlapeyre/qiskit-terra/blob/MD-expval/qiskit/quantum_info/operations.py) using multiple dispatch. Following is an example script that calls these methods: ```python import numpy as np from qiskit.quantum_info.states import Statevector...

Yes. I just discovered the problem. Here is the [offending line](https://github.com/jlapeyre/EmpiricalCDFs.jl/blob/4825319cb70becb79294b145208ea66e8e6f9a65/src/cdfs.jl#L53). It is a doc string for a callable object. I read another issue about `Documenter` (or tool it uses)...

... I have no idea where Julia sticks that doc string. Arguably, that documentation should be part of a different doc string, maybe for the type itself. EDIT: I see...

Sorry, I did not see the email ping. I never pushed the version with `@autodocs`. There is no `cdf` function, but I [define a method]( https://github.com/jlapeyre/EmpiricalCDFs.jl/blob/96c9c33b69dcdebdbcabeff10131ed2ea3092908/src/cdfs.jl#L59) to make `EmpiricalCDF` a...

`exponential_map` takes a parameter and returns a function closing over that parameter. But, the returned function includes conditionals testing the value of the parameter. These conditionals should probably be moved...

We could create a deep copy `term`, which would effectively make it immutable.
