+Primer3 is a widely used program for designing PCR primers. Primer3
+can also design hybridization probes and sequencing primers. PCR is
+used for many different goals. Consequently, primer3 has many
+different input parameters that you control and that tell primer3
+exactly what characteristics make good primers for your goals.
