Abstract
The first public beta release of GAP 4[6] was made on July 18 1997. Since then the system has been cited in over 2400 publications, and its distribution now includes over 130 contributed extension pack- ages. This tutorial will review the special features of computational abstract algebra and how they are reflected in the system design; some areas of current algorithmic development, and some recent achievements.
