There are a large number of examples provided with the &ANUPQ; package.
These may be executed or displayed via the function <C>PqExample</C>
(see <Ref Func="PqExample" Style="Text"/>). Each example resides in a file of the same name in the
directory <C>examples</C>. Most of the examples are translations to &GAP; of
examples provided for the <C>pq</C> standalone by Eamonn O'Brien; the standalone examples are found in directories <C>standalone/examples</C>
(<M>p</M>-quotient and <M>p</M>-group generation examples) and <C>standalone/isom</C>
(standard presentation examples). The first line of each example
indicates its origin. All the examples seen in earlier chapters of this
manual are also available as examples, in a slightly modified form (the
example which one can run in order to see something very close to the
text example <Q>live</Q> is always indicated near -- usually immediately
after -- the text example). The format of the (<C>PqExample</C>) examples is
such that they can be read by the standard <C>Read</C> function of &GAP;, but
certain features and comments are interpreted by the function <C>PqExample</C>
to do somewhat more than <C>Read</C> does. In particular, any function without
a <C>-i</C>, <C>-ni</C> or <C>.g</C> suffix has both a non-interactive and interactive
form; in these cases, the default form is the non-interactive form, and
giving <C>PqStart</C> as second argument generates the interactive form.
<P/>
Running <C>PqExample</C> without an argument or with a non-existent example
<C>Info</C>s the available examples and some hints on usage:

#I -----------------------------------
#I This table of possible examples is displayed when calling `PqExample'
#I with no arguments, or with the argument: "index" (meant in the sense
#I of ``list''), or with a non-existent example name.
#I
#I Examples that have a name ending in `-ni' are non-interactive only.
#I Examples that have a name ending in `-i' are interactive only.
#I Examples with names ending in `.g' also have only one form. Other
#I examples have both a non-interactive and an interactive form; call
#I `PqExample' with 2nd argument `PqStart' to get the interactive form
#I of the example. The substring `PG' in an example name indicates a
#I p-Group Generation example, `SP' indicates a Standard Presentation
#I example, `Rel' indicates it uses the `Relators' option, and `Id'
#I indicates it uses the `Identities' option.

If on your terminal you are unable to scroll back, an alternative to
typing <C>PqExample();</C> to see the displayed examples is to use on-line
help, i.e. you may type:
<Log><![CDATA[

which will display this appendix in a &GAP; session. If you are not
fussed about the order in which the examples are organised,
<C>AllPqExamples();</C> lists the available examples relatively compactly
(see <Ref Func="AllPqExamples" Style="Text"/>).
<P/>
In the remainder of this appendix we will discuss particular aspects
related to the <C>Relators</C> (see <Ref Label="option Relators" Style="Text"/>) and <C>Identities</C>
(see <Ref Label="option Identities" Style="Text"/>) options, and the construction of the Burnside
group <M>B(5, 4)</M>.
The <C>Relators</C> option was included because computations involving words
containing commutators that are pre-expanded by &GAP; before being
passed to the <C>pq</C> program may run considerably more slowly, than the
same computations being run with &GAP; pre-expansions avoided. The
following examples demonstrate a case where the performance hit due to
pre-expansion of commutators by &GAP; is a factor of order 100 (in order
to see timing information from the <C>pq</C> program, we set the <C>InfoANUPQ</C>
level to 2).
<P/>
Firstly, we run the example that allows pre-expansion of commutators (the
function <C>PqLeftNormComm</C> is provided by the &ANUPQ; package;
see <Ref Func="PqLeftNormComm" Style="Text"/>). Note that since the two commutators of this
example are <E>very</E> long (taking more than an page to print), we have
edited the output at this point.

Now we do the same calculation using the <C>Relators</C> option. In this way,

Please pay heed to the warnings given for the <C>Identities</C> option
(see <Ref Label="option Identities" Style="Text"/>); it is written mainly at the &GAP; level and
is not particularly optimised. The <C>Identities</C> option allows one to
compute <M>p</M>-quotients that satisfy an identity. A trivial example better
done using the <C>Exponent</C> option, but which nevertheless demonstrates the
usage of the <C>Identities</C> option, is as follows:

Note that the <C>time</C> statement gives the time in milliseconds spent by
&GAP; in executing the <C>PqExample("B2-4-Id");</C> command (i.e. everything
up to the <C>Info</C>-ing of the variables used), but over 90% of that time
is spent in the final <C>Pq</C> statement. The time spent by the <C>pq</C> program,
which is negligible anyway (you can check this by running the example
while the <C>InfoANUPQ</C> level is set to 2), is not counted by <C>time</C>.
<P/>
Since the identity used in the above construction of <M>B(2, 4)</M> is just an
exponent law, the <Q>right</Q> way to compute it is via the <C>Exponent</C>
option (see <Ref Label="option Exponent" Style="Text"/>), which is implemented at the C level and

significantly faster, generally by several orders of magnitude:

The (interactive) call to <C>Pq</C> above is essentially equivalent to a call
to <C>PqPcPresentation</C> with the same arguments and options followed by a
call to <C>PqCurrentGroup</C>. Moreover, the call to <C>PqPcPresentation</C> (as
described in <Ref Func="PqPcPresentation" Style="Text"/>) is equivalent to a <Q>class 1</Q> call to
<C>PqPcPresentation</C> followed by the requisite number of calls to

An example demonstrating how a large computation can be organised with the
&ANUPQ; package is the computation of the Burnside group <M>B(5, 4)</M>, the
largest group of exponent 4 generated by 5 elements. It has order
<M>2^{2728}</M> and lower exponent-<M>p</M> central class 13. The example
<C>"B5-4.g"</C> computes <M>B(5, 4)</M>; it is based on a <C>pq</C> standalone input
file written by M. F. Newman.
<P/>
To be able to do examples like this was part of the motivation to provide
access to the low-level functions of the standalone program from within
&GAP;.
<P/>
Please note that the construction uses the knowledge gained by Newman and
O'Brien in their initial construction of <M>B(5, 4)</M>, in particular,
insight into the commutator structure of the group and the knowledge of
the <M>p</M>-central class and the order of <M>B(5, 4)</M>. Therefore, the
construction cannot be used to prove that <M>B(5, 4)</M> has the order and
class mentioned above. It is merely a reconstruction of the group. More
information is contained in the header of the file <C>examples/B5-4.g</C>.
In the following example we will explore the 3-groups of rank 2 and
3-coclass 1 up to 3-class 5. This will be done using the <M>p</M>-group
generation machinery of the package. We start with the elementary abelian
3-group of rank 2. From within &GAP;, run the example
<C>"PqDescendants-treetraverse-i"</C> via <C>PqExample</C> (see <Ref Func="PqExample" Style="Text"/>).

]]></Example>
To automate the above procedure to some extent we provide:
<Description>
for the <A>i</A>th or default interactive &ANUPQ; process, generate a
descendant tree for the group of the process (which must be a pc
<M>p</M>-group) consisting of descendants of <M>p</M>-coclass 1 and extending to
the class determined by the option <C>TreeDepth</C> (or 6 if the option is
omitted). In an &XGAP; session, a graphical representation of the
descendants tree appears in a separate window. Subsequent calls to
<C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C> for the same process may be used to extend
the descendant tree from the last descendant computed that itself has
more than one descendant. <C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C> also accepts the
options <C>CapableDescendants</C> (or <C>AllDescendants</C>) and any options
accepted by the interactive <C>PqDescendants</C> function
(see <Ref Func="PqDescendants" Label="interactive" Style="Text"/>).
<P/>
<E>Notes</E>
<Enum>
<Item>
<C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C> first calls <C>PqDescendants</C>. If
<C>PqDescendants</C> has already been called for the process, the previous
value computed is used and a warning is <C>Info</C>-ed at <C>InfoANUPQ</C> level 1.
</Item>
<Item>
As each descendant is processed its unique label defined by the <C>pq</C>
program and number of descendants is <C>Info</C>-ed at <C>InfoANUPQ</C> level 1.
</Item>
<Item>
<C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C> is an <Q>experimental</Q> function that is
included to demonstrate the sort of things that are possible with the
<M>p</M>-group generation machinery.
</Item>
</Enum>
Ignoring the extra functionality provided in an &XGAP; session,
<C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C>, with one argument that is the index of an
interactive &ANUPQ; process, is approximately equivalent to:
<Listing><![CDATA[
PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne := function( procId )
local des, i;
where <C>RecurseDescendants</C> is (approximately) defined as follows:
<Listing><![CDATA[
RecurseDescendants := function( procId, class, n )
local i, nr;
if class > ValueOption("TreeDepth") then return; fi;
for i in [1..n] do
PqPGSetDescendantToPcp( procId, class, i );
PqPGExtendAutomorphisms( procId );
nr := PqPGConstructDescendants( procId : StepSize := 1 );
Print( "Number of descendants of group ", i, " at class ", class, ": ", nr, "\n" );
RecurseDescendants( procId, class+1, nr );
od;
return;
end;
]]></Listing>
The following examples (executed via <C>PqExample</C>; see <Ref Func="PqExample" Style="Text"/>),
demonstrate the use of <C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C>:
<List>
<Mark><C>"PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne-9-i"</C></Mark>
<Item>
approximately does example <C>"PqDescendants-treetraverse-i"</C> again using
<C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C>;
</Item>
<Mark><C>"PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne-16-i"</C></Mark>
<Item>
uses the option <C>CapableDescendants</C>; and
</Item>
<Mark><C>"PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne-25-i"</C></Mark>
<Item>
calculates all descendants by omitting the <C>CapableDescendants</C> option.
</Item>
</List>
The numbers <C>9</C>, <C>16</C> and <C>25</C> respectively, indicate the order of the
elementary abelian group to which <C>PqDescendantsTreeCoclassOne</C> is
applied for these examples.
