and loading the Polenta package
The installation of the Polenta package follows standard GAP rules.
So the standard method is to unpack the package into the pkg
directory of your GAP distribution. This will create a polenta
subdirectory.
For other non-standard options please see Chapter Installing a GAP Package in the GAP Reference Manual.
Note that the GAP-Packages Alnuth and Polycyclic are needed for this package. They can be obtained at smallskip centerlinetthttp://cayley.math.nat.tu-bs.de/software/content.html
If the Polenta Package is not already loaded
then you have to request it explicitly.
This can be
done by LoadPackage("polenta")
.
The LoadPackage
command is described in Section LoadPackage
in the GAP Reference Manual.
