This circuit implements a quantum switch, allowing for a superposition of causal orders of two gate operations depending on a control qubit.
```python
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
# Create a circuit with 3 qubits and 1 classical bit
qc = QuantumCircuit(3, 1)
# Qubits:
# q0 - control qubit to superpose the order of operations
# q1 - target qubit for gate A
# q2 - target qubit for gate B
# Step 1: Initialize the control qubit in superposition
qc.h(0)
# Step 2: Apply gate A to qubit 1 (e.g., an X gate)
qc.x(1)
# Step 3: Apply gate B to qubit 2 (e.g., a Z gate)
qc.z(2)
# Step 4: Use a controlled-SWAP (Fredkin gate) to conditionally swap qubits 1 and 2 based on the control qubit
qc.cswap(0, 1, 2)
# Step 5: Apply Hadamard gate to the control qubit to create interference
qc.h(0)
# Step 6: Measure the control qubit to determine the ordering
qc.measure(0, 0)
```
This quantum circuit implements a **quantum switch**, where the order in which two operations (gate A and gate B) are applied depends on a control qubit in superposition. The control qubit determines whether gate A is applied before gate B or vice versa, creating a superposition of causal orders, a concept not possible in classical computing.
