Example 1.
Use the command SimpleLieAlgebraData to initialize the simple Lie algebra This is a 15-dimensional Lie algebra of skew-Hermitian matrices.

| (2.1) |
The explicit matrices defining are given by the StandardRepresentation command.

The diagonal matrices determine a Cartan subalgebra.

|
| (2.3) |
We use the Query command to check that (2.3) is a Cartan subalgebra.

Note that the command RootSpace performs the inverse operation to - given a root, the command returns the corresponding root space.

Example 2.
If the complete root space decomposition is given as a table, then the command returns the indices of that table as column vectors.
