Everything about Symmetric Group totally explained

In mathematics, the symmetric group on a set X, denoted by SX or Sym(X), is the group whose underlying set is the set of all bijective functions from X to X, in which the group operation is that of composition of functions, for example, two such functions f and g can be composed to yield a new bijective function f circ g, defined by (f circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) for all x in X. Using this operation, SX forms a group. The operation is also written as fg (and sometimes, although not here, as gf).

Finite symmetric groups

Of particular importance is the symmetric group on the finite set » X = (S_6)=S_6 times C_2.
