Abstract

The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to performing a greater vector determination in memory. An example apparatus comprises a first group of memory cells coupled to a sense line and to a number of first access lines and a second group of memory cells coupled to the sense line and to a number of second access lines. The example apparatus comprises a controller configured to operate sensing circuitry to compare a value of a first element stored in the first group of memory cells to a value of a second element stored in the second group of memory cells to determine which of the value of the first element and the value of the second element is greater.
