## 1. Categories of Associative Words
##
## <#GAPDoc Label="[1]{wordass}">
## Associative words are used to represent elements in free groups,
## semigroups and monoids in &GAP;
## (see <Ref Sect="Free Groups, Monoids and Semigroups"/>).
## An associative word is just a sequence of letters,
## where each letter is an element of an alphabet (in the following called a
## <E>generator</E>) or its inverse.
## Associative words can be multiplied;
## in free monoids also the computation of an identity is permitted,
## in free groups also the computation of inverses
## (see <Ref Sect="Operations for Associative Words"/>).
## 
## Different alphabets correspond to different families of associative words.
## There is no relation whatsoever between words in different families.
## 
## <Example><![CDATA[
## gap> f:= FreeGroup( "a", "b", "c" );
## <free group on the generators [ a, b, c ]>
## gap> gens:= GeneratorsOfGroup(f);
## [ a, b, c ]
## gap> w:= gens[1]*gens[2]/gens[3]*gens[2]*gens[1]/gens[1]*gens[3]/gens[2];
## a*b*c^-1*b*c*b^-1
## gap> w^-1;
## b*c^-1*b^-1*c*b^-1*a^-1
## ]]></Example>
## 
## Words are displayed as products of letters.
## The letters are usually printed like <C>f1</C>, <C>f2</C>, <M>\ldots</M>,
## but it is possible to give user defined names to them,
## which can be arbitrary strings.
## These names do not necessarily identify a unique letter (generator),
## it is possible to have several letters
## –even in the same family– that are displayed in the same way.
## Note also that
## <E>there is no relation between the names of letters and variable names</E>.
## In the example above, we might have typed
## 
## <Example><![CDATA[
## gap> a:= f.1;; b:= f.2;; c:= f.3;;
## ]]></Example>
## 
## (<E>Interactively</E>, the function
## <Ref Oper="AssignGeneratorVariables"/> provides a shorthand for this.)
## This allows us to define <C>w</C> more conveniently:
## 
## <Example><![CDATA[
## gap> w := a*b/c*b*a/a*c/b;
## a*b*c^-1*b*c*b^-1
## ]]></Example>
## 
## Using homomorphisms it is possible to express elements of a group as words
## in terms of generators,
## see <Ref Sect="Expressing Group Elements as Words in Generators"/>.

## 6. External Representation for Associative Words
## <#GAPDoc Label="[6]{wordass}">
## The external representation of the associative word <M>w</M> is defined
## as follows.
## If
## <M>w = g_{{i_1}}^{{e_1}} * g_{{i_2}}^{{e_2}} * \cdots * g_{{i_k}}^{{e_k}}</M>
## is a word over the alphabet <M>g_1, g_2, \ldots</M>,
## i.e., <M>g_i</M> denotes the <M>i</M>-th generator of the family of
## <M>w</M>, then <M>w</M> has external representation
## <M>[ i_1, e_1, i_2, e_2, \ldots, i_k, e_k ]</M>.
## The empty list describes the identity element (if exists) of the family.
## Exponents may be negative if the family allows inverses.
## The external representation of an associative word is guaranteed to be
## freely reduced;
## for example,
## <M>g_1 * g_2 * g_2^{{-1}} * g_1</M> has the external representation
## <C>[ 1, 2 ]</C>.
## 
## Regardless of the family preference for letter or syllable
## representations
## (see <Ref Sect="Representations for Associative Words"/>),
## <C>ExtRepOfObj</C> and <C>ObjByExtRep</C> can be used and interface to
## this <Q>syllable</Q>-like representation.
## 
## <Example><![CDATA[
## gap> w:= ObjByExtRep( FamilyObj(a), [1,5,2,-7,1,3,2,4,1,-2] );
## a^5*b^-7*a^3*b^4*a^-2
## gap> ExtRepOfObj( w^2 );
