+NTL is a high-performance, portable C++ library providing data
+structures and algorithms for arbitrary length integers; for vectors,
+matrices, and polynomials over the integers and over finite fields;
+and for arbitrary precision floating point arithmetic.
+
+NTL provides high quality implementations of state-of-the-art algorithms for:
+
+   o arbitrary length integer arithmetic and arbitrary precision
+     floating point arithmetic;
+   o polynomial arithmetic over the integers and finite fields
+     including basic arithmetic, polynomial factorization,
+     irreducibility testing, computation of minimal polynomials,
+     traces, norms, and more;
+   o lattice basis reduction, including very robust and fast
+     implementations of Schnorr-Euchner, block Korkin-Zolotarev
+     reduction, and the new Schnorr-Horner pruning heuristic for block
+     Korkin-Zolotarev;
+   o basic linear algebra over the integers, finite fields, and
+     arbitrary precision floating point numbers.
+
+NTL is free software, and may be used according to the terms of the
+GNU General Public License.
