Small Groups Library
The group theoretical computer algebra system GAP contains the "Small Groups library" which provides access to descriptions of small order groups. The groups are listed up to isomorphism. At present, the library contains the following groups:
- those of order at most 2000, except for order 1024 (423164062 groups in the library; the ones of order 1024 had to be skipped, as there are an additional 49487365422 nonisomorphic 2-groups of order 1024.);
- those of cubefree order at most 50000 (395 703 groups);
- those of squarefree order;
- those of order for n at most 6 and p prime;
- those of order for p = 3,5,7,11 (907 489 groups);
- those of order qn×p where qn divides 28, 36, 55 or 74 and p is an arbitrary prime which differs from q;
- those whose orders factorise into at most 3 primes.
It contains explicit descriptions of the available groups in computer readable format.

Famous quotes containing the words small, groups and/or library:
“The sickness of our times for me has been just this damn thing that everything has been getting smaller and smaller and less and less important, that the romantic spirit has dried up, that there is no shame today.... We’re all getting so mean and small and petty and ridiculous, and we all live under the threat of extermination.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
“To a historian libraries are food, shelter, and even muse. They are of two kinds: the library of published material, books, pamphlets, periodicals, and the archive of unpublished papers and documents.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
