Palindrome checker oracle
Description
Implement a quantum oracle on $N$ qubits which checks whether the vector $\vec{x}$ is a palindrome (i.e., implements the function $f(\vec{x}) = 1$ if $\vec{x}$ is a palindrome, and 0 otherwise).
You have to implement an operation which takes the following inputs:
- an array of $N$ ($1 \le N \le 8$) qubits $x$ in an arbitrary state (input register),
- a qubit $y$ in an arbitrary state (output qubit),
and performs a transformation $|x\rangle|y\rangle \rightarrow |x\rangle|y \oplus f(x)\rangle$. The operation doesn't have an output; its "output" is the state in which it leaves the qubits.
Your code should have the following signature:
namespace Solution { open Microsoft.Quantum.Primitive; open Microsoft.Quantum.Canon;operation Solve (x : Qubit[], y : Qubit) : Unit { body (...) { // your code here } adjoint auto; }
}
