Inspiration
I was inspired by the classical implementation of the ALU using verilog so I wanted to see what would be the quantum version.
What it does
It performs the same operations as a classical ALU expect using qubits instead of binary bits.
How we built it
Depending on the value of the control gate determines what operation the ALU will perform.
Challenges we ran into
There isn't a direct one-to-one equivalent to the classical AND gate because quantum gates need to be reversible.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Completing this project and learning more about quantum!
What we learned
I have learned some similarities and differences when it comes to how classical computers versus how quantum computing works. Overall I would say this was more of a educational exercise than anything ground-breaking.
