Problem Description:
There is an issue in the rename_gate function at line 259, causing an inconsistency in the gate hierarchy when renaming a gate. The problem arises during the retrieval of successor gates after the initial renaming process.
Call the function: rename_gate('A', 'A new', ('root', 'CD4 naifs')).
Observed Behavior:
The renaming process occurs prematurely between lines 247 and 254, changing the name A to A new.
When attempting to retrieve the successor gate 'A1' in line 259 using the hierarchy ('root', 'CD4 naifs', 'A'), it fails because:
There are now two A1 gates in the hierarchy.
No gate matches the new name A new.
Potential Root Cause:
The renaming logic alters the hierarchy prematurely (between lines 247 and 254) before successor gates are resolved. This leads to mismatched references when rename_gate attempts to access successor gates in line 259.
Suggested Fix:
I have fix the problem by add this line before line 259:
s_tuple = tuple(s if s != gate_name else new_gate_name for s in s_tuple)
