FA-91133 / Quantum circuit simulation / Member archive

Shot sampler accepts u = 1 · case 03

A uniform of exactly 1 is silently mapped to the last index, even when its weight is zero, instead of being rejected.

Case contract

Input [n, weights, uniforms]; weights are nonnegative integers for basis indices 0..2**n-1 and uniforms are exact decimal or fraction strings in [0, 1). Each uniform u selects the first index i with u * total < cumulative weight through i. Return counts {bitstring: count} with qubit n-1 leftmost. Errors: "bad-length", "negative-weight", "no-support", ["bad-uniform", position].

Why this case matters

Deterministic replay of sampled shots makes simulator results reproducible; CDF boundary slips bias counts toward impossible outcomes.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
