    The McKay conjecture states that the number of irreducible complex characters of a finite group \(G\) that have degree prime to \(p\) is equal to the same number for the Sylow \(p\)-normalizer in \(G\). The author verifies this conjecture for the 26 sporadic simple groups by inspecting the structure of the groups \(N_G(P)/P'\) for the relevant Sylow subgroups \(P\) of a sporadic simple group \(G\).
