The maximal subgroups of O8-(2):2 are as follows.
- O8-(2)
- 2^6:U4(2):2
- S6(2) x 2
- 2^(3+6):(L3(2) x S3)
- 2^(1+8):(S3 x S5)

A set of generators for the maximal cyclic subgroups of O8-(2) can be obtained
by running this program on the standard
generators. All conjugacy classes can therefore be obtained as suitable
powers of these elements.
These classes are compatible with the Atlas of Brauer Characters.
