👁 C_2×C_4
is one of the three Abelian groups of group order 8 (the other two being non-Abelian). Examples include the modulo multiplication groups 👁 M_(15)
, 👁 M_(16)
, 👁 M_(20)
, and 👁 M_(30)
(and no others).

The elements 👁 A_i
of this group satisfy 👁 A_i^4=1
, where 1 is the identity element, and four of the elements satisfy 👁 A_i^2=1
. The cycle graph is shown above.

Its multiplication table is illustrated above.

Since the group is Abelian, each element is in its own conjugacy class.

The subgroups are 👁 {1}
, 👁 {1,B}
, 👁 {1,E}
, 👁 {1,G}
, 👁 {1,A,B,D}
, 👁 {1,B,C,F}
, 👁 {1,B,E,G}
, and 👁 {1
, A, B, C, D, E, F, 👁 G}
. Since the group is Abelian, all of these are normal.
