In lengthy code, you could start with a line like OnSets = libgap.OnSets and then in the rest of the code, you could do `g.Stabilizer([1,2], OnSets)`. That is, predefine whatever you want from libgap, giving each item a meaningful name, and then use that name in the rest of the code. Thanks for this tip.

The former has rather limited functionality (and quite a few bugs as reported earlier), so the advise was to use the latter concept. So after setting `g = libgap.SymmetricGroup(4)`, things like `g.Stabilizer(1)` work as expected. However, I have difficulties to figure out how for instance the equivalent of the Gap code `Stabilizer(g, [1,2], OnSets)` would look like. Something like `g. Stabilizer([1, 2], 'OnSets')` raises a GapError. it is g. Stabilizer([1, 2], libgap.OnSets) In lengthy code, calling too many keywords such as "libgap" is not elegant in my opinion. Zhao (which makes sense, as in GAP you also don't pass a string to Stabilizer, but you pass a GAP action) Are these things documented somewhere? I couldn't find anything. all we have is https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/libs/sage/libs/gap/libgap.html (and source code, eg in src/sage/graphs/) - pull requests welcome 😁 Dima -- Peter Mueller -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
