Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install gap-fga on Kali Linux.

What is gap-fga

gap-fga is:

GAP is a system for computational discrete algebra, with particular emphasis
on Computational Group Theory. GAP provides a programming language, a library
of thousands of functions implementing algebraic algorithms written in the GAP
language as well as large data libraries of algebraic objects. GAP is used in
research and teaching for studying groups and their representations, rings,
vector spaces, algebras, combinatorial structures, and more.

The FGA package installs methods for computations with finitely generated
subgroups of free groups and provides a presentation for their automorphism
groups. It was written by Christian Sievers.

There are three methods to install gap-fga on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
