Resolves #2098 .
Reorder the signature of
matrix_group
frommatrix_group(::Int, ::Ring, ...)
tomatrix_group(::Ring, ::Int, ...)
to align this with othermatrix*
methods.I'm actually not sure what the consensus on this was; for now, I allow both version since we have e.g.
general_linear_group(::Int, ::Ring)
after all.I also moved the types for
MatrixGroup
andMatrixGroupElem
tosrc/Groups/types.jl
and replaced someMatrixGroup
constructors bymatrix_group
, see #1380 . (Unfortunately, one cannot aliasMatrixGroup
tomatrix_group
, so this constitutes a breaking change.)
