Dynamic code properties

[quantumgizmos]

It would be nice to have functionality whereby codes can be constructed one stabilizer/qubit at a time. e.g.

qcode = StabilizerCode()
qcode.add_stabilizer(00001111)
qcode.add_stabilizer(11110000)

The code's properties will change as stabilizers are added. How can make sure that the code properties are updated dynamically?

Solution 1 (Slow)

Add a method StabilizerCode.update_code_attributes() every time a new stabilizer is added.

• This would get quite slow if we are adding 1000s of stabilizers.

Solution 2 (Faster)

• Make all current attributes private.
• Write getters for each attributes.
• Set a paramters _code_state_changed: bool
• Each @Property getter should check whether _code_state_changed is set to true. If yes, then the update_code_params function should be called.

Please any other ideas you might have...
