Summary
This appendix gives manual entries for the functions of PGpack a suite of Mathematica functions designed to complement the main part of the text. This includes functions for dense divisibility, optimizing parameter choices, generating various types of tuples and exploring tuples, and implementations of the algorithms of Maynard, Polymath and Bogaert. It can be freely downloaded from the author's book page linked to his website homepage.
