----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Things like `letters` should be `'letters'`, and I'm pretty sure that the
list in `elements` should be a list of strings? This would be easy for
people to check - just try out all options!
{{{
INPUT:
- ``names`` - the type of names used, values are:
* ``letters`` - lowercase ASCII letters are used
for a base 26 representation of the elements'
positions in the list given by :meth:`list`,
padded to a common width with leading 'a's.
* ``digits`` - base 10 representation of the
elements' positions in the list given by
:meth:`~sage.matrix.operation_table.OperationTable.column_keys`,
padded to a common width with leading zeros.
* ``elements`` - the string representations
of the elements themselves.
* a list - a list of strings, where the length
of the list equals the number of elements.
- ``elements`` - default = ``None``. A list of
elements of the set. This may be used to impose an
alternate ordering on the elements, perhaps
when this is used in the context of a particular structure.
The default is to use whatever ordering is provided by the
the group, which is reported by the
:meth:`~sage.matrix.operation_table.OperationTable.column_keys`
method. Or the ``elements`` can be a subset
which is closed under the operation. In particular,
this can be used when the base set is infinite.
