IntroductionWHAT ARE NEURAL NETWORKS ?
Main functionLike human brain
FEATURES OF NEURAL NETWORKS ?
Self-Organizing Learning.Fault tolerant. Fast run but not fast to learn.Particularly suited to problems.Can be trained to generate non-linear mappings.

Necessary Approximation
Mult(a,b)=E(Sub(L(a)+L(b),B)) multiplicationDivd(a,b)=E(Sub(L(a),L(b))) division
L(a) returns the location (starting from 0) of the most significant bit position of a,
E(a) forces 1 on a-th bit position ( a modification of this operation forces 1 on a, a-2, a-4 etc. bit positions).
