This package provides a simple implementation of Leon's partition backtrack framework.

BacktrackKit currently requires (currently) GAP version >= 4.11.0, and sufficiently recent versions of the following packages (see the PackageInfo.g file for specific versions):

• datastructures
• digraphs
• images
• primgrp Additionally, the QuickCheck package is required in order to run all of the tests.

This package is a work in progress, both in terms of code and documentation.

If you have any issues or questions about this package, please post an issue at https://github.com/peal/BacktrackKit/issues

• Remove Object for a stabiliser constraint (as a synonym for source object). This clashed with the HAP package.

• Rename BTKit_Con to BTKit_Refiner.
• Add constraints documentation from Vole
• Add ProcessConstraints and BTKit_RefinerFromConstraint

Refiners now have a “constraint” member, which is a new type of GAP object, and which stores information about the constraint that the refiner refiners with respect to. Constraints are available via the Constraint record.

Add IsEven and IsOdd refiners, to more efficiently handle alternating groups

• Significant change to the API -- remove the requirement to give the size of the partition to most refiners
