Hi Nilo,
Both groups are semidirect products of a normal subgroup isomorphic to
C4 x C2 with a subgroup of order 2.
(More explicitly, according to some notes of mine, group [16,3] is
generated by elements x, y, z where x has order 4, y and z have order
2, x and y commute (thus <x,y> = C4 x C2), y and z commute and zxz=xy.
Group [16,13] is generated by x, y, z with orders 4, 2, 2, respectively
where xy=yx, xz=zx, zyz=x^2y.)

Hello GAP Forum,
Could someone please explain why AllGroups(16)[3] and
AllGroups(16)[13] both return "(C4 x C2) : C2" on the function
StructureDescription?
Thanks in advance,
nilo
