-This simple example makes an entangled state known as a [GHZ state](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenberger%E2%80%93Horne%E2%80%93Zeilinger_state) $(|000\rangle + |111\rangle)/\sqrt{2}$. It uses the standard quantum gates: Hadamard gate (`h`), Phase gate (`p`), and CNOT gate (`cx`).

 Once you've made your first quantum circuit, choose which primitive function you will use. Starting with `sampler`,
 we use `measure_all(inplace=False)` to get a copy of the circuit in which all the qubits are measured:
