Division Function Complication #19

Closed reshnashrestha closed 12 months ago

Implementing classical arithmetic functions like division on a quantum computer may not be the most efficient or practical use of quantum resources. Source: Chatgpt

How are we going to run this ? @pratibha77118 @JustinJaniszewski

I was searching for how to begin to implement the division function, and I found this kind of stuff:

Performing basic arithmetic operations like division on a quantum computer is highly inefficient and not what quantum computing is designed for. The use of Python and Qiskit to simulate division on a quantum computer is not a practical application.

@laserlab in your suggestion what do you want us to choose as an arithmetic function for our group homework?

I don't believe it matters if it is inefficient. I would recommend checking out #13 . And the restoring_division_example.py in the main branch. It shows how to do division in terms of subtraction.
