Quadratic coefficients length mismatch: ${problem.quadratic.

Error message

Quadratic coefficients length mismatch: ${problem.quadratic.length} vs ${expectedQuadratic}

What it means

validateQuboProblem() found problem.quadratic.length differs from the expected n*(n-1)/2 upper-triangle pair count (and is not the permitted 0 placeholder). The quadratic coupling array does not match the declared variable count.

Solutions

  1. Ensure both inputs have identical lengths before the operation; pad or truncate as appropriate for the domain.
  2. Validate lengths at the call site and fail fast with both lengths in the message.
Defensive patterns

Strategy: validation
