Describe the fix or the content request.
There was a feedback that the wording you might want to manipulate electrical signals
used in the primitive description gives the wrong impression that we provide that level of access.
Since the section immediately above, Why did Qiskit introduce primitives?
, already covers a lot of the reasoning behind, I think we can simplify the What
section to something like
In computing, a primitive is the smallest processing instruction for a given abstraction level. Put simply, you can think of primitives as the simplest building block from which one can create something useful for a given abstraction level.
The two most common tasks for quantum computers are sampling quantum states and calculating expectation values. These tasks motivated the design of the Qiskit primitives: Estimator and Sampler.
