Project Description:
The Hamming distance is a metric of how many different characters two strings have on corresponding places. Algorithms to measure this distance in Quantum Computers often focus only at the bit level. This is not ideal in situations where strings of symbols, composed of several bits, want to be compared. In this paper, the authors implement an encoding scheme to successfully measure the hamming distance between sequences of letters.
One current interesting application of this is the word-game Wordle. By looking for the word whose average Hamming distance to the rest of the database is minimal, we can optimize a playing strategy in which the probability of getting green and yellow matches is higher, therefore reducing the set of possible answers quickly and efficiently.
