Each row and each column in the group multiplication table lists each of the group elements once and only once. From
this, it follows that no two elements may be in the identical location in two rows
or two columns. Thus, each row and each column is a rearranged list of the group
elements. Stated otherwise, given a group of distinct elements
, the set of products
reproduces the
original distinct elements in a new order.
