48.54 PrintToCAS

PrintToCAS( filename, tbl )
PrintToCAS( tbl, filename )

produces a file with name filename which contains a CAS library table of the GAP character table tbl; this file can be read into CAS using the get-command (see~NPP84).

The line length in the file is at most the current value SizeScreen()[1] (see SizeScreen).

Only the components identifier, text, order, centralizers, orders, print, powermap, classtext (for partitions only), fusions, irredinfo, characters, irreducibles of tbl are considered.

If tbl.characters is bound, this list is taken as characters entry of the CAS table, otherwise tbl.irreducibles (if exists) will form the list characters of the CAS table.

gap> PrintToCAS( "c2", CharTable( "Cyclic", 2 ) );

produces a file with name c2 containing the following data:

    'C2'
    00/00/00. 00.00.00.
    (2,2,0,2,-1,0)
    text:
    (#computed using generic character table for cyclic groups#),
    order=2,
    centralizers:(2,2),
    reps:(1,2),
    powermap:2(1,1),
    characters:
    (1,1)
    (1,-1);
