67.19 Interface to the CAS System

  • CASString( tbl ) F

    is a string that encodes the sf CAS library format of the character table tbl. This string can be printed to a file which then can be read into the sf CAS system using its get command (see NPP84).

    The used line length is SizeScreen()[1] (see SizeScreen).

    Only the known values of the following attributes are used. ClassParameters (for partitions only), ComputedClassFusions, ComputedPowerMaps, Identifier, InfoText, Irr, ComputedPrimeBlocks, ComputedIndicators, OrdersClassRepresentatives, Size, SizesCentralizers.
