Ultimate Recipe to Construct Every Finite Group - Group Extensions and Computational Group Theory

Group is a mathematical abstraction used to describe symmetry. In this video, we introduce the theory of groups, group decomposition and extension, and computational aspects as to why classifying all finite groups is impossible.
