+== Param functions ==
+
+Pairings are initialized from _pairing parameters_, which are objects of type
+`pbc_param_t`. Some applications can ignore this data type because
+`pairing_init_set_str()` handles it behind the scenes: it reads a string as a
+`pbc_param_t`, then initializes a pairing with these parameters.

+=== Param generation ===
+
+These were used to prepare the sample parameters in the +param+ subdirectory.
+
+We label the pairing families with capital letters roughly in the order of
+discovery, so we can refer to them easily. Type A is fastest. Type D is a good
+choice when elements should be short but is slower. Type F has even shorter
+elements but is slower still. The speed differences are hardware-dependent, and
+also change when preprocessing is used. Type B and C are unimplemented.
+
+The +pbc_cm_t+ data type holds CM parameters that are used to generate type D
+and G curves.
