 #
 # N.B. a difference with older versions of Chevie is that IsLeftDescending
 and
 # FirstLeftDescending  return  an  index  in  the  list  of  generators,
 not a
 # reflectionName,  for  efficiency.  LeftDescentSet  still  returns  names
 of
 # reflections.

 ##  generic reduction of FirstLeftDescending to IsLeftDescending
 ##  in practical implementations of Coxeter groups this routine can often
 ##  be overriden by a more efficient one.

 AbsCoxOps.FirstLeftDescending:=function(W, x)local i,ILD;
   ILD:=W.operations.IsLeftDescending; # avoid dispatching overhead
   for i in W.generatingReflections do if ILD(W,x,i) then return i; fi; od;
   return false;
 end;
