[GAP Forum] Consults on GAP

[齐嘉悦]

Dear Alexander,

Thank you so much for helping and I think my problem of this character degree stuff solved now!

Best wishes,
Jiayue

> The operation `AllSmallGroups’ can select for groups satisfying certain functions, e.g the result of the function `CharacterDegrees’. For example, to get all groups of order 32 with 4 characters of degree  and 16 linear characters, one could use:

> AllSmallGroups(Size,32,CharacterDegrees,[[[1,16],[2,4]]]);

> (Note that, as the result is a list, we need to wrap it in a list once more to avoid GAP interpreting it as a collection of values, alternatively one could use it as:
> 
> AllSmallGroups(Size,32,x->CharacterDegrees(x)=[[1,16],[2,4]],true);
> 
> Note that the character degrees are not stored precomputed in the library, so GAP will have to compute them on the fly for all groups in the otherwise specified range. So doing this test for order 256 could take a long time.
