TypeError when printing wavefunction

ejdanderson opened this issue · comments

Printing out the wavefunction using the Reference QVM throws a type error as pyQuil attempts to perform various scalar math operations.

For example:

from referenceqvm import api
import pyquil.quil as pq
from pyquil.gates import *

qvm = api.SyncConnection()

p = pq.Program(H(0), CNOT(0,1))
prog = pq.Program().inst(H(0)).measure(0, [0]).measure(0, [1])
result = qvm.run(prog, [0, 1])

for index, amplitude in enumerate(qvm.wavefunction(p)[0]):
    print(amplitude)
    print(amplitude.real)
    print('--')
    
print(qvm.wavefunction(p)[0])

produces the following output :

[ 0.70710678+0.j]
[ 0.70710678]
--
[ 0.+0.j]
[ 0.]
--
[ 0.+0.j]
[ 0.]
--
[ 0.70710678+0.j]
[ 0.70710678]
