InitializeGroupPresentationGPL( pres )

InitializeGroupPresentationGPL initializes the GPL presentation pres. This function returns nothing but adds one or two components to the GPL record pres:

.group contains the GAP group built from the presentation.


   gap> InitializeGroupPresentationGPL( mcl );
   gap> mcl.group;
   McL

.stringGenerators when bound, contains a string that gives the correspondance between the generators used in the finitely presented GAP group and the generators used in the string presentation. The letter on position i of the string corresponds with the generator group.i.

   gap> mcl.stringGenerators;
   "abcdfe"
