### 3 Installing and loading the FGA package

#### 3.1 Installing the FGA package

The installation of the FGA package follows standard GAP rules. So the standard method is to unpack the archive into the `pkg` directory of your GAP distribution. This will create an `fga` subdirectory.

For other non-standard options please see Chapter Reference: Installing a GAP Package in the GAP Reference Manual.

#### 3.2 Loading the FGA package

The FGA package is configured to autoload, so its functionality is usually available once GAP is started.

If GAP does not autoload, you can request the package with the `LoadPackage` command like this:

    gap> LoadPackage( "fga" );

You will not see the banner if FGA has already been loaded.

The `LoadPackage` command and ways to disable autoloading are described in Section Reference: Loading a GAP Package in the GAP Reference Manual.
