The aim of this paper is to present computing techniques for the finitely generated subgroups of the free group. The focus is the computation of the closures of a finitely generated subgroup for certain profinite topologies, namely the pro-p and the pro-nilpotent topology. However the first section concentrates on the classical manipulation of finitely generated subgroups when more elementary operations are concerned: computing the rank, the index or a basis; calculating an intersection.
