Beginner Question: How do I run a simple function on the Dwave QPU?
Lets say I have a function
def testFunction ():
// add some variables and write to file
//do something with those variables , as well as converting to strings etc
if __name__ == "__main__":
testFunction ()
==============================================================
The question is, how would I be able to run this python file on the QPU with 2000qb?
Thank you before hand for helping out a complete beginner.

The QPU doesn't execute instructions they way a CPU does. The D-Wave Quantum Annealer is configured to take a problem expressed as a quadratic models and return a low energy solution for that model. In its most simplistic form, it is just a minimum function which returns a sampling of values, where low energy solutions (good problem solutions) are more likely than bad ones.
For some starter resources, take a look at this post: https://support.dwavesys.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4410174432407/comments/4410355427607
It really is not as abstract as my explanation makes it sound.
I welcome others to jump in with their explanations.
