I sincerely apologize in advance for this simple question.

I recently started learning GAP and I am having difficulties finding Sporadic simple groups in GAP. For example, if I want to find the order of the symmetric group $S_{10}$, I know that Order(SymmetricGroup(10)) works. I also know how to call certain sporadic simple groups, to be precise, Mathieu groups. eg:-Order(MathieuGroup(12))

Could anyone please tell me how to find the remaining Sporadic groups.

Thank you!

There is a command SimpleGroup that takes a name. e.g. SimpleGroup(“HS”); Note that Monster and Baby Monster are not available yet, and some of the larger groups require the atlasrep package.
