SpechtModule :: CharacterTable _ Sequence = Thing

CharacterTable _ Sequence = Thing -- modifies an entry from the character table

Synopsis

Operator: _
Usage:

charTable_(a,b)=e
Inputs:
- charTable, an instance of the type CharacterTable
- pos, a sequence, the position (a,b) to be consulted. It can be given by either a number or a Partition
- e, a thing, the number to be put in the position
Outputs:
- an integer, the number in the position
