[GAP Forum] Maximal Subgroup

[Alexander Konovalov]

Dear Mike,

Please see MaximalSubgroupClassReps and MaximalSubgroups at

	http://www.gap-system.org/Manuals/doc/ref/chap39.html#X798BF55C837DB188

This hint could be also found in GAP F.A.Q: see 

7.7: How do I get the subgroups of my group? at 

	http://www.gap-system.org/Faq/faq.html#7.7

For large groups, looking at them up to conjugacy with 
MaximalSubgroupClassReps is very much recommended.

Hope this helps
Alexander
