class Clbit:
    """
    This class represents classical bits. Classical bits are created by supplying the
    identifier string.

    Examples
    --------

    We create a Clbit and add it to a QuantumCircuit. After applying an Hadamard-Gate,
    we measure into the Clbit.

    >>> from qrisp import Clbit, QuantumCircuit
    >>> qc = QuantumCircuit(1)
    >>> qc.h(0)
    >>> mes_result = Clbit("mes_result")
    >>> qc.add_clbit(mes_result)
    >>> qc.measure(0, mes_result)
    >>> qc.run()
    {'0': 5000, '1': 5000}
