public final class CNOTGate
extends TwoQubitGate

CNOT (Controlled-NOT) quantum gate.

A fundamental two-qubit gate where the target qubit is flipped (X gate) if the control qubit is |1⟩. It is the quantum equivalent of the classical XOR operation. The gate matrix implements: |00⟩ → |00⟩, |10⟩ → |11⟩, |01⟩ → |01⟩, |11⟩ → |10⟩.
