Program Plan Intro

Components of computer:

Computer has four major components, they are:

  • Central processing unit (CPU)
  • Memory unit
  • Input devices
  • Output devices

Central Processing Unit (CPU):

  • CPU plays the key role in a computer by carrying out instructions of a computer program.
  • It performs all the basic logic, arithmetic, controlling and input/output operations that are specified by the instructions.
  • The CPU comprises of two units, Arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and control unit (CU).

Memory unit:

  • Once computer program instructions set are transformed into machine code by CPU, the machine code is stored in memory.
  • Then the CPU fetches the required data and instructions from memory, perform the required operations and then sends the result and next set of instructions back to memory.

Input devices:

  • The devices used by the user to feed information to computer, such as a hard drive, keyboard, or a networking card.
  • These devices get the data from outside world into computer in the way that human eyes and ears bring the data to brain.

Output devices:

  • Output devices are used by computer to deliver the information to the user, such as a monitor, printer, and speaker.
  • The CPU takes the machine code present in memory and converts it into a format that is required by monitor’s hardware.
  • Then the monitor’s hardware alters that information into different light intensities such that words or pictures are seen.

I need help to solve a simple problem using Grover’s algorithm, where the solution is not necessarily known beforehand. The problem is a 2×2 binary sudoku with two rules: • No column may contain the same value twice. • No row may contain the same value twice.   Each square in the sudoku is assigned to a variable as follows:   We want to design a quantum circuit that outputs a valid solution to this sudoku. While using Grover’s algorithm for this task is not necessarily practical, the goal is to demonstrate how classical decision problems can be converted into oracles for Grover’s algorithm.   Turning the Problem into a Circuit   To solve this, an oracle needs to be created that helps identify valid solutions. The first step is to construct a classical function within a quantum circuit that checks whether a given state satisfies the sudoku rules.   Since we need to check both columns and rows, there are four conditions to verify: v0 ≠ v1   # Check top row   v2 ≠ v3   # Check bottom row…
