Monte Carlo Simulation Code Example?
Hello,
I see many references to Quantum Computers being able to solve Monte Carlo Simulations (or similar probability based risk analysis) quickly/efficiently. Is there any example code available using the Ocean SDK for a basic Monte Carlo Simulation?
Thank you.

Hello,
I am interested to get a better idea of what kind of problems you would like to solve.
There has been some research done into Monte Carlo Simulations.
Although there are no code examples, here are some references to papers on the subject of sampling from Quantum Boltzmann distributions:

https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.05779
One question is, can the problems be written as QUBOs (quadratic unconstrained binary optimizations)?
The QPU can be used to solve QUBOs, so this would be a good place to start if it's possible.
Please let us know more about what you are trying to solve, and maybe we can point you to some helpful resources.
