[seqfan] Re: Some questions about groups

[Robert Munafo]

Well, I mis-spoke slightly -- while there are plenty of SAGE examples in
OEIS (A016873, A026741, A052944, A053191, A059270, A087475, A123642
plus many of the first several thousand) I checked many of these but found
none that concern group theory.
