The functions described here print lists or objects with an iterator with one item per line, either the whole list/iterator or certain subsets:
by giving a list of positions of items to be printed, or
by specifying a first item and then a regular step.
‣ PrintOneItemPerLine ( obj ) | ( function ) |
This function prints lists, or objects which have an iterator, vertically, rather than horizontally, may be useful when the entries are lengthy. Since a very similar result may be achieved using the GAP library functions Perform
and Display
, this function should be considered obsolete and liable to removal in due course.

‣ PrintSelection ( obj, first, step[, last] ) | ( function ) |
‣ PrintSelection ( obj, list ) | ( function ) |
This function, given three (or four) parameters, calls operations PrintSelectionFromList
or PrintSelectionFromIterator
which prints the first item specified, and then the item at every step. The fourth parameter is essential when the object being printed is infinite.
Alternatively, given two parameters, with the second parameter a list L
of positive integers, only the items at positions in L
are printed.
