Integration with Small Groups library #35

Open fingolfin opened 1 year ago

fingolfin commented 1 year ago

We plan to integrate this package better with the small groups library in the future. That means several things:

  1. Add a new layer to the small groups library which covers all group ids covered by SOTGrps but not (yet) covered by the SmallGroups library
  2. for orders which are supported by both, provide functions to convert between SmallGrp and SOTGrps ids
  3. hook deeper into the SmallGroups library to replace constructor and/or identification functions with those provided by SOTGrps (namely in all cases where SOTGrps is faster). Naturally while retaining the existing ordering (so this requires point 2)

Regarding 1: some initial code for this is in gap/Integration.gi but this not yet being loaded

Regarding 2:
