    Args:
        wires (int or Iterable[Number, str]]): Number of subsystems represented by the device,
            or iterable that contains unique labels for the subsystems as numbers (i.e., ``[-1, 0, 2]``)
            or strings (``['ancilla', 'q1', 'q2']``).
        provider (Provider | None): provider to lookup the backend on (ignored if a backend instance is passed).
        backend (str | Backend): the desired backend. Either a name to look up on a provider, or a
            BackendV1 or BackendV2 instance.
        shots (int or None): number of circuit evaluations/random samples used
            to estimate expectation values and variances of observables. For statevector backends,
            setting to ``None`` results in computing statistics like expectation values and variances analytically.

    Keyword Args:
        name (str): The name of the circuit. Default ``'circuit'``.
