A titan, as defined by Samuel Yates, is anyone who has found a titanic prime . This page provides data on those that have found these primes. The data below only reflect on the primes currently on the list. (Many of the terms that are used here are explained on another page .)

"PrimeForm" (the former name of this program) allows
probable prime tests of arbitrary expressions, and
deterministic classical tests wherever possible. The
current version, PrimeForm/GW, is available here for
x86 platforms . It uses the George Woltman libraries, as
developed for the GIMPS project, for high-speed PRP and
classical testing of arbitrary forms.
pfgw is an open source project. All source code
is freely available and all contributions are welcome.
The previous version of the program, "PrimeForm for
Windows", is now obsolete. It is a sister program to Yves
Gallot's proth.exe and uses the same mathematics libraries
as proth.exe. It is still available for users who prefer a
GUI, but it is several times slower than pfgw.
Many thanks to George Woltman and Yves Gallot for providing
their wonderful mathematics libraries for the respective
program versions. Thanks to Chris Caldwell and Preda
Mihailescu for optimizations of the classical tests, thanks
also go to Chris for supporting the p?? prover codes in the
top 5000 database. Above all, thanks and appreciation go to
the numerous mathematicians and computer scientists whose
methods are used by the program.
