NAME

       depqbf - a solver for quantified boolean formulae

SYNOPSIS

       depqbf [options ...] [NUM] [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       depqbf  is a search-based solver for quantified boolean formulae (QBF) in prenex conjunctive normal form. It is based on the DPLL algorithm
       for QBF with conflict-driven clause and solution-driven cube learning. By analyzing the structure of a formula, DepQBF  tries  to  identify
       independent  variables.	In addition to other benefits, this often increases freedom for decision making. See also the JSAT system descrip-
       tion of DepQBF 0.1 from QBFEVAL'10 for references and a brief outline of the idea.

       depqbf reads QBF formulas in QDIMACS format. If FILE is not given, it reads its input from stdin. It complies with  input/output  standards
       as required by QBFEVAL'10.

OPTIONS

       depqbf accepts the following options:

       -h, --help
	      Print usage information.

       --version
	      Print version.

       --pretty-print
	      Only parse and print formula.

       -v     Increase verbosity incrementally.

       NUM    Optional: time-out after NUM seconds.

       FILE   Optional: read input from FILE.

EXIT STATUS

       The  exit  status is 10 if the QBF formula given as input is satisfiable, and 20 if it is unsatisfiable; any other exit code indicates that
       the formula was not solved.
