Abstract:
Examples of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and methods for performing variable bit-length division operations in a memory. An example method comprises performing a variable length division operation on a first vector comprising variable length elements representing a number of dividends and stored in a group of memory cells coupled to a first access line and a number of sense lines of a memory array and a second vector comprising variable length elements representing a number of divisors stored in a group of memory cells coupled to a second access line and the number of sense lines of the memory array. The method can include dividing the first vector by the second vector by performing a number of operations. The method can include performing at least one of the number of operations without transferring data via an input/output (I/O) line.
