Yices is a high-performance SMT solver and theorem prover developed by SRI International. It is widely used for checking the satisfiability of logical formulas over various theories, including arithmetic, bit-vectors, arrays, and uninterpreted functions. Yices supports the SMT-LIB standard and its own input language, and provides APIs for several programming languages, making it suitable for integration into formal verification, program analysis, and constraint solving tools.
### Features
- **SMT Solver:** Supports a wide range of theories and quantifiers.
- **Multi-language APIs:** C, OCaml, Python, and more.
- **Cross-platform:** Available on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- **Active development:** Open source and maintained by SRI International.
