Template:Cyclic group of twice prime order

Definition

This group, denoted {{{3}}}, is defined in the following equivalent ways:

1. It is a cyclic group of order $14$.
2. It is the direct product of the cyclic group:Z2 and the [[cyclic group:Z{{{2}}}]].

GAP implementation

Group ID

This finite group has [[groups of order {{{1}}}|order {{{1}}}]] and has ID 2 among the groups of order {{{1}}} in GAP's SmallGroup library. For context, there are groups of order {{{1}}}. It can thus be defined using GAP's SmallGroup function as:

SmallGroup({{{1}}},2)

For instance, we can use the following assignment in GAP to create the group and name it $G$:

gap> G := SmallGroup({{{1}}},2);

Conversely, to check whether a given group $G$ is in fact the group we want, we can use GAP's IdGroup function:

IdGroup(G) = [{{{1}}},2]

or just do:

IdGroup(G)

to have GAP output the group ID, that we can then compare to what we want.
