    Methods for finding the character table of a finite group require a stock of reducible characters and techniques for decomposing these characters into irreducible components. The authors propose a method for generating reducible characters from a representation of a group. This paper generalizes earlier results of J. H. Conway and M. Guy [see \textit{J. H. Conway}, Computational Group Theory, Durham 1982, 249-266 (1984; Zbl 0558.20007)].
