Quantum Computing Onboarding
Does anyone know of a "GitHub" repository for D-Wave using the Ocean interface for problem-solving examples? I understand conceptually how it solves problems, but I'd like some ideas on how to formulate a problem for the D-Wave. Is there an example of an NP-hard problem that can be solved on the D-Wave?

Hello,
Have you had a chance to look at the D-Wave GitHub Examples repository?
https://cloud.dwavesys.com/leap/examples/
There are code examples of a variety of problems.
You can also load them in the Leap IDE to try running the examples on the QPU:

Another useful place to start is the Leap Resources page:

I hope this helps!
In addition to the links given by David J., I would recommend reading "A Tutorial on Formulating and Using QUBO Models" by Glover and others. It elaborates a little bit more about some of the formulations listed in the Ising Formulations article mentioned above. While it focuses on QUBO formulations, it also discusses QUBOs and quantum annealers, and has an extensive bibliography to learn more.
