Abstract

The problem of the abc Conjecture is stated and various consequences are established. Other known consequences are stated without proof. Topics supporting belief that the abc Conjecture is true are discussed. The idea of good abc triples is defined and all known good triples are stated. Some computational computer work verifying these values is discussed. This is the first time that such brute force computations have been published.
