<h2><a name="SECT001">4.1 Installing this package</a></h2>
<p><p>
The Guarana package is part of the standard distribution of <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> and
so normally there should be no need to install it separately.
If by any chance it is not part of your <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> distribution, then
the standard method is to unpack the package into the <code>pkg</code>
directory of your <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> distribution. This will create a <code>guarana</code>
subdirectory.
For other non-standard options please see Chapter <a href="../../../doc/htm/ref/CHAP075.htm#SECT001">Installing a GAP Package</a> of the <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> Reference Manual.
<p>
Note that the GAP-Packages Polycyclic and Polenta
are needed for this package.
Normally they should be contained in your distribution. If not,
they can be obtained at
<pre>
www.gap-system.org/Packages/packages.html
</pre>
<p>
<p>
<h2><a name="SECT002">4.2 Loading the Guarana package</a></h2>
<p><p>
<a name = "I0"></a>
If the <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">Guarana</font> Package is not already loaded
then you have to request it explicitly.
This can be
done by <code>LoadPackage("guarana")</code>.
The <code>LoadPackage</code> command is described in Section <a href="../../../doc/htm/ref/CHAP075.htm#SSEC002.1">LoadPackage</a>
in the <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> Reference Manual.
<p>
<p>
<h2><a name="SECT003">4.3 Running the test suite</a></h2>
<p><p>
Once the package is installed, it is possible to check the correct
installation by running the test suite of the package.
<p>
<pre>
gap> Read(Filename(DirectoriesPackageLibrary("guarana","tst")[1],"testall.g"));
</pre>
For more details on Test Files see
Section <a href="../../../doc/htm/ref/CHAP007.htm#SECT009">Test Files</a> of the
<font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> Reference Manual.
<p>
If the test suite runs into an error,
then please send a message
to <code>bjoern@mcs.st-and.ac.uk</code> including the error message.
