[GAP Forum] Nongenerating elements of a group

[Sandeep Murthy]

Dear Forum.

I have two questions.

1. What are the differences between the functions
GeneratorsSmallest( group ) and MinimalGeneratingSet( group ) ?
They seem to do the same thing.

2. Is there a function for testing whether a given element of a
group is a nongenerating element?

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely, Sandeep.
