Abstract: Recently, we have introduced and studied the topic of sub-indices and sub-factors of groups. During those studies, an algorithm for obtaining the sub-factors of a finite group was stated and proved, which has a particular case for calculating the transversals of subgroups. In this work, we first show that it is a complete algorithm for obtaining all transversals. Then, motivated by it, we state and prove a complete general algorithm to obtain all representatives and the number of double cosets of subgroups (which has not been possible so far). Moreover, we introduce the concept of middle direct product of three subsets and several equivalent conditions for a subset to be a complete set of representatives of double cosets. Also, as another important result of the topic, we provide a definitive method to obtain the middle factor of groups relative to a couple of subgroups.
