group(deprecated)

 orbit
 Compute the orbit of a point

 Calling Sequence orbit(pg, i)

Parameters

 pg - permutation group or a set of permutations i - point

Description

 • Important: The group package has been deprecated. Use the superseding command GroupTheory[Orbit] instead.
 • This function computes the orbit of i under the group action of pg. The orbit is returned as a set of points.
 • The command with(group,orbit) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
