  | Notes
   | This representation is 5-transitive, acting on a S(5, 8, 24) Steiner system. There are 759 blocks, one of which is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 17, 24}. You can find the others in GAP with the command:
B := [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 17, 24];
G := Group(b11, b21);
O := Orbit(G, B, OnSets);

    | Presentation
     | Check against the relations in a presentation. If this test passes, then the group is of the correct isomorphism type, and the generators are those stated. Note that the presentation itself is not checked here.

    | Semi-presentation
     | Check against a semi-presentation. If this fails, then the representation is not on standard generators, and may generate the wrong group. Note that the semi-presentation itself is not checked here.
