Component:  group_theory  |    Keywords:        
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Currently to evaluate a character, you have to use
 something indirect like

 {{{
 sage: G = GL(2,7)
 sage: z = G.center().an_element()
 sage: reps = [x.Representative() for x in gap(G).ConjugacyClasses()]
 sage: reps.index(gap(z))
 8
 sage: table = gap(G).CharacterTable().Irr()
 sage: chi = table[2]
 sage: chi[8]
 1
 }}}

 Martin Mereb asked

 {{{
 is it possible to imlpement something like
 chi(z) or chi.eval(z) or something like that?
 }}}

 This should be implemented.
