Cayley tables are broken for groups (its in Trac - Jason discovered the problem), seemingly far too complicated with calls to GAP, and it produces symbolic matrices (overkill?).

I have working code for what I will probably call "operation tables." General enough they could be used for both addition and multiplication tables of a ring. So I will post unfinished code on Trac and maybe somebody would want to help/advise on what might be desired as I try to do this right. It'd motivate me to finish it.

So this is definitely a project that has education as its audience. If you instead had something in mind that wasn't so much about coding, holler - otherwise sometime today I'll post a description on the wiki and make a ticket. So this is definitely a project that has education as its audience.

Fix Cayley Tables of Groups

Maybe Karl-Dieter has some symbolic/calculus/maxima projects that are worth tackling quickly?
