Is there a function in Qiskit similar to this function in Q# which measures strings of Pauli operators applied to different qubits?

You can create a string of Pauli operators, applied to different qubits, using the Pauli class from qiskit.quantum_info, and then just do a measurement like you would do for any circuit.

  • $\begingroup$ Well I wanted to measure in the eigenbasis of that corresponding Pauli operator. Something like "measure X" equals applying the Hadamard gate and then measure in the computational basis. Just as a preimplemented function in qiskit. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Sorry for commenting so late. But maybe the WeightedPauliOperator answers your question @sycramore. $\endgroup$
