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:
“Nothing can we call our own but death,
And that small model of the barren earth
Which serves as paste and cover to our bones.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Belonging to a group can provide the child with a variety of resources that an individual friendship often cannot—a sense of collective participation, experience with organizational roles, and group support in the enterprise of growing up. Groups also pose for the child some of the most acute problems of social life—of inclusion and exclusion, conformity and independence.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
“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 They are of two kinds: the library of published material, books, pamphlets, periodicals, and the archive of unpublished papers and documents.”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)
