48.4 IsCharTable

IsCharTable( obj )

returns true if obj is a record with fields centralizers (a list) and identifier (a string), otherwise it returns false.

    gap> IsCharTable( rec( centralizers:= [ 2,2 ], identifier:= "C2" ) );
    true 

There is one exception: If the record does not contain an identifier component, but a name component instead, then the function returns true. Note, however, that this exception will disappear in forthcoming GAP versions.
