Description (last modified by jdemeyer)

BraidGroup? checks that the number of generators is bigger or equal than 2. It should be 1 (two strands, one generator). So, now the braid group on two strands can't be created.

This patch solves it. (It is just a one line change):

Apply: 14081_one_generator.patch​ and 14081_one_generator2.patch​

Could you add a doctest showing this is fixed and a comment on that about about why it should be n < 1 instead of n < 2 as the error message (correctly) indicates (such as # n now is the number of generators)? Once that is done, set this to needs_review.

Thanks,
Travis

There's also a doctest failure (due to capitalization). Also, for the doctest, could you make it some form of: 

Check that :trac:`14081` is fixed::

    sage: BraidGroup(2)
    Braid group on 2 strands
    sage: BraidGroup(('a',))
    Braid group on 2 strands

Thanks.
