What do the elements of D12 and S4 look like?  I found some pictures of what D12 and S4 can look like, but I am really stuck on what the elements are.  Are they the rotations and reflections?

Prove that S4 is not isomorphic to D12.

D12 has elements of order 12 whereas S4 does not and therefore they cannot be isomporphic. --Aifrank 17:05, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

What do the elements of D12 and S4 look like? I found some pictures of what D12 and S4 can look like, but I am really stuck on what the elements are. Are they the rotations and reflections?
