+
+* The TPTP Problem Library for Automated Theorem Proving.
+
+The TPTP (Thousands of Problems for Theorem Provers) is a library of test
+problems for automated theorem proving (ATP) systems. The TPTP supplies the
+ATP community with:
+
+ * A comprehensive library of the ATP test problems that are available today,
+   in order to provide an overview and a simple, unambiguous reference
+   mechanism.
+ * A comprehensive list of references and other interesting information for
+   each problem.
+ * Arbitrary size instances of generic problems (e.g., the N-queens problem).
+ * A utility to convert the problems to existing ATP systems' formats.
+ * General guidelines outlining the requirements for ATP system evaluation.
+ * Standards for input and output for ATP systems.
+
+The principal motivation for the TPTP is to support the testing and evaluation
+of ATP systems, to help ensure that performance results accurately reflect the
+capabilities of the ATP system being considered. A common library of problems
+is necessary for meaningful system evaluations, meaningful system comparisons,
+repeatability of testing, and the production of statistically significant
+results. The TPTP is such a library.
