Joe, thanks; top job! I'll use List(DirectFactorsOfGroup(G),StructureDescription) from now on. That does what I need for things like C6, too, i.e. splits it down to indecomposable factors, which StructureDescription doesn't bother to do.
Ed. PS: "KRULL SCHMIDT"! There, now it's associated with the keywords that I failed with originally :) Joe> You can try DirectFactorsOfGroup(G); Joe> Joe> You can also try StructureDescription(G), but keep in mind that that Joe> sometimes works very slowly, and it doesn't give you the actual subgroups. _________________________________________________________________ Make a mini you and download it into Windows Live Messenger http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/111354029/direct/01/_______________________________________________ Forum mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
