# How to perform a plot histogram for a circuit?

I have created a circuit and I don't know how to plot a histogram. I tried to plot a histogram but it gives me output for 0000 case only, how to get to know the probability for all of the cases. The below is the plot I got,

qc = QuantumCircuit(4, 4)
qc.cx(3, 1)
qc.cx(1, 0)
qc.cx(0, 1)
qc.ccx(3, 2, 1)
qc.cx(1, 2)
qc.cx(3, 2)
qc.measure(0, 0)
qc.measure(1, 1)
qc.measure(2, 2)
qc.measure(3, 3)
job = execute(qc, backend = Aer.get_backend('qasm_simulator'), shots=1024)
result = job.result()
count = result.get_counts()
plot_histogram(count)


How to get the plot histogram not only for 0000 case but also all of the other cases?

What you did is right. However, the reason for the result you observe is because your output state is in the state $$|000\rangle$$ with 100% certainty. To see this, note that your circuit has the form:

That is, it starts in the state $$|0000\rangle$$, then all those control operations don't do anything since all the controlled qubits are in the state $$|0\rangle$$.

However, if you instead consider the following circuit:

qc = QuantumCircuit(4, 4)
for i in range(4):
qc.h(i)
qc.cx(3, 1)
qc.cx(1, 0)
qc.cx(0, 1)
qc.ccx(3, 2, 1)
qc.cx(1, 2)
qc.cx(3, 2)
qc.measure(0, 0)
qc.measure(1, 1)
qc.measure(2, 2)
qc.measure(3, 3)

• The histogram describes the frequency or number of times that you measured that particular state. The total number of time you run a particular circuit to extract the measurement statistics is called shots. For example, suppose you run the circuit with 1000 shots (run the circuit 1000 time) and 47 of those run give you the state $|0000\rangle$ upon measurement, then this tells you that you have roughly the probability of $47/1000 = 0.047$ of observing the state $|0000\rangle$ when you measure the circuit.
