    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and methods related to performing comparison operations in a memory. An example apparatus might include a first group of memory cells coupled to a first access line and configured to store a first element. An example apparatus might also include a second group of memory cells coupled to a second access line and configured to store a second element. An example apparatus might also include sensing circuitry configured to compare the first element with the second element by performing a number of AND operations, OR operations, SHIFT operations, and INVERT operations without transferring data via an input/output (I/O) line.

    Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to performing comparison operations in memory. An example apparatus can include a first group of memory cells coupled to a first access line and configured to store a plurality of first elements, and a second group of memory cells coupled to a second access line and configured to store a plurality of second elements. The apparatus can include a controller configured to cause the plurality of first elements to be compared with the plurality of second elements by controlling sensing circuitry to perform a number of operations without transferring data via an input/output (I/O) line, and the plurality of first elements and the plurality of second elements can be compared in parallel.

    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and methods for performing shift operations in a memory. An example method comprises performing a shift operation a first element stored in a first group of memory cells coupled to a first access line and a number of sense lines of a memory array and a second element stored in a second group of memory cells coupled to a second access line and the number of sense lines of the memory array. The method can include shifting the first element by a number of bit positions defined by the second element by performing a number of AND operations, OR operations, SHIFT operations, and INVERT operations performed without transferring data via an input/output (I/O) line.

    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and methods for performing signed division operations. An apparatus can include a first group of memory cells coupled to a first access line and a number of sense lines. The apparatus can include a second group of memory cells coupled to a second access line and the number of sense lines. The apparatus can include a controller configured to cause sensing circuitry to divide a signed dividend element stored in the first group of memory cells by a signed divisor element stored in the second group of memory cells by performing a number of operations. At least one of the number of operations can be performed without transferring data via an input/output (I/O) line.

    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.

    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and methods related to performing a loop structure for operations performed in memory. An example apparatus might also include a controller configured to cause sensing circuitry to iterate through a plurality of first elements and a plurality of second elements via a loop structure to perform an operation using the plurality of first elements and the plurality of second elements, wherein a conditional statement associated with the loop structure is used to determine whether at least one of a plurality of bits stored as an iterator mask has a particular bit-value. An example apparatus might also include sensing circuitry controllable to perform a shift operation using the iterator mask at each iteration of the loop structure and perform an AND operation using the iterator mask at each iteration of the loop structure.
