Hey all,
Currently trying to revise products of disjoint cycles. I am struggling to get my head around the idea however. Its strange, i can generate disjoint cycles easily however i can't quite see the product of cycles. Mabye I've missed something.
eg of what i don't quite get.
What is the product of
(1,2,3)(1,2)
My textbook says the answer is (1,3) but i can't understand how this is?
Please shed some light!
Kind regards
Tamintl
