In a 2002 poll, 61 mathematicians and computer scientists said that they thought P probably didn’t equal NP, to only nine who thought it did — and of those nine, several told the pollster that they took the position just to be contrary. But so far, no one’s been able to decisively answer the question one way or the other.
Even though the vast majority of CS researchers believe that P does not equal NP, no one has been able to prove otherwise and the problem remains the biggest unsolved question in Computer Science to date.

One of these is the deceptively simple assertion that P = NP.
