A Machine Program for Theorem-Provingt

In [1] is set forth an algorithm for proving theorems of quantification theory which is an improvement in certain respects over previously available algorithms such as that of [2]. The present paper deals with the programming of the algorithm of [1] for the New York University, Institute of Mathematical Sciences' IBM 704 computer, with some modifications in the algorithm suggested by this work, with the results obtained using the completed algorithm. Familiarity with [1] is assumed throughout.
