[seqfan] Re: Some questions about groups

[Robert Munafo]

SAGE, used throughout David Joyner's book "Adventures in Group Theory" (2nd
edition, ISBN 0-8018-9013-6) implements a lot of functions related to group
theory, is programmable, and has the advantage of being both open-source and
low-cost.

There seem to be no examples of SAGE usage in OEIS, but see page 14 of
http://buzzard.ups.edu/sage/sage-group-theory-primer.pdf where many examples
are given ("We list here constructions, as permutation groups, for all of
the groups of order less than 16.") in SAGE syntax.
