[GAP Forum] maximal subgroups

[Alexander Konovalov]

Please see MaximalSubgroups (I presume you should know already how
to construct D8 from previous replies, so I am not giving an example).

This is how to find its documentation in GAP:

gap> ?MaximalSubgroups
Help: several entries match this topic - type ?2 to get match [2]

[1] Reference: MaximalSubgroups
[2] Reference: MaximalSubgroupsLattice
[3] Reference: MaximalSubgroups for groups with pcgs
[4] Reference: MaximalSubgroupsTom
gap> 


Now type ?1 etc.

Also, this is useful: http://www.gap-system.org/Faq/faq.html#7.7
