[GAP Forum] Displaying the list of GAP available functions

[mfrincu at info.uvt.ro]

Thank you all for the replies. They have been very useful in solving  
my problem.
I only manage to make it work with "and not  
IsOperation(ValueGlobal(str))". With String(ValueGlobal(str)){[1..8]}=  
"function" I get a Error, no method defined  and when I look with  
ShowArguments() I see it comes from [<Operation "PROD">] :(

One more thing and I have no more questions:

Is there a way to find out the functions in a certain package? I know  
that there is a way to display a package but a way to see what  
functions it contains? (Perhaps a raw method of A:=the function list  
when gap is started with no package; B:=the function list after the  
package is loaded; C:=B-A ???)

Best regards,
Marc Frincu
