Abstract
This document provides an introductory example, a tutorial, and a compact refer­
ence to the PVS verification system. It is intended to provide enough information to
get you started using PVS, and to help you appreciate the capabilities of the system
and the purposes for which it is suitable.
\Lambda Dave Stringer­Calvert provided valuable comments on earlier versions of this tutorial, and also checked
the specifications and proofs appearing here. Preparation of this tutorial was partially funded by NASA
Langley Research Center under Contract NAS1­18969, and by the Advanced Research Projects Agency
through NASA Ames Research Center NASA­NAG­2­891 (Arpa order A721) to Stanford Unversity.
