# SamplingVQEResult

*class* `qiskit.algorithms.minimum_eigensolvers.SamplingVQEResult`

[GitHub](https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.46/qiskit/algorithms/minimum_eigensolvers/sampling_vqe.py)

Bases: `VariationalResult`, [`SamplingMinimumEigensolverResult`](/docs/api/qiskit/0.46/qiskit.algorithms.minimum_eigensolvers.SamplingMinimumEigensolverResult "qiskit.algorithms.minimum_eigensolvers.sampling_mes.SamplingMinimumEigensolverResult")

VQE Result.

## Attributes

### aux\_operators\_evaluated

Return aux operator expectation values and metadata.

These are formatted as (mean, metadata).

### best\_measurement

Return the best measurement over the entire optimization.

Possesses keys: `state`, `bitstring`, `value`, `probability`.

### cost\_function\_evals

Returns number of cost optimizer evaluations

### eigenstate

Return the quasi-distribution sampled from the final state.

The ansatz is sampled when parameterized with the optimal parameters that where obtained computing the minimum eigenvalue. The keys represent a measured classical value and the value is a float for the quasi-probability of that result.

### eigenvalue

Return the approximation to the eigenvalue.

### optimal\_circuit

The optimal circuits. Along with the optimal parameters, these can be used to retrieve the minimum eigenstate.

### optimal\_parameters

Returns the optimal parameters in a dictionary

### optimal\_point

Returns optimal point

### optimal\_value

Returns optimal value

### optimizer\_evals

Returns number of optimizer evaluations

### optimizer\_result

Returns the optimizer result

### optimizer\_time

Returns time taken for optimization

## Methods

### combine

`combine(result)`

Any property from the argument that exists in the receiver is updated. :param result: Argument result with properties to be set.

**Raises**

[**TypeError**](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError) – Argument is None
