There is a slight discrepancy between the GAP 3 catalogue numbers and those defined in Hall-Senior's book.
For order 16, there is a mix-up between nummbers 3 and 4: According to Hall-Senior: (16,3) corresponds to Z4 X Z4 (GAP ID (16,2)) and (16,4) corresponds to Z8 X Z2 (GAP ID (16,5)) According to the GAP 3 catalogue: (16,4) corresponds to Z4 X Z4 (GAP ID (16,2)) and (16,3) corresponds to Z8 X Z2 (GAP ID (16,5)) Vipul * Quoting Bettina Eick who at 2012-04-17 08:59:58+0000 (Tue) wrote > > Dear Forum, > > as far as I remember, one can get this information as follows. > > The groups of order 64 as determined by Hall and Senior are part > of the solvable groups library of GAP 3.
