Requests information on drawing an operation in a circuit diagram.
cirq.circuit_diagram_info(
    val: Any,
    args: (CircuitDiagramInfoArgs | None) = None,
    default=RaiseTypeErrorIfNotProvided
)
Calls _circuit_diagraminfo on val. If val doesn't have
_circuit_diagraminfo, or it returns NotImplemented, that indicates that
diagram information is not available.
| Args | 
|---|
| val | The operation or gate that will need to be drawn. | 
| args | A CircuitDiagramInfoArgs describing the desired drawing style. | 
| default | A default result to return if the value doesn't have circuit
diagram information. If not specified, a TypeError is raised
instead. | 
| Returns | 
|---|
| If valhas no _circuit_diagraminfo method or it returns
NotImplemented, thendefaultis returned (or a TypeError is
raised if nodefaultis specified).Otherwise, the value returned by _circuit_diagraminfo is returned.
 | 
| Raises | 
|---|
| TypeError | valdoesn't have circuit diagram information anddefaultwas
not specified. |
