// Copyright (C) 1994 The New York Group Theory Cooperative
// See magnus/doc/COPYRIGHT for the full notice.

// Contents: Definition of the FPGroupRep class.
//           The name is abbreviated to fit in a library.
//
// Principal Authors: Stephane Collart, Roger Needham
//
// Status: in progress
//
// Revision History:
//
// 12/16/94 rn Added provisional data member word_problem, for experimentation.
//          The wordProblem method now consults it. The ctors had to change too.
//
//  5/01/95 rn removed the WordProblem data member.
//
// Discussion:
//
// * The problem of storing flags: many flags signalling properties of
//   groups imply that information was computed in addition to the
//   setting of the flag: for small cancellation, the value of lamda,
//   for free, the rank, etc.
//   Storing both a flag and the value of some information can be
//   redundant, making consistent manipulation more cumbersome.
//   The helper class FPGroupRep::MetricSmallCancellationLambda is a
//   tentative and partial answer to this, by providing both value
//   and setting handles, but keeping only one effective data record.
//   Note that the problem of storing additional information generated
//   in computations, such as eg. more relators, is left open by this.
//
// * Is it really appropriate for a group to accumulate information
//   about itself? There seems to be a danger of redundancy of
//   facilities if eg. an FPGroup both remembers it is a MSCGroup,
//   and behaves as such, and at the same time a full blown MSCGroup
//   class is provided with much the same abilities.
//
// Bugs:
//
// * isTrivialElt(Elt) calls wordProblem(Word), implying the assumption
//   the arg is always an actual word: this seems highly questionable.
//   
// Special Notes:
//
//
