    Bounds for the order of an r-generator nilpotent group G of exponent n and class c are considered. The theorem is false, already for abelian groups (the case \(c=1).\) \{Reviewer's remark: The methods used in the proof yield well-known crude upper bounds for the order of G. These can very much be improved upon by using \textit{H. Meier-Wunderli} [Comment. Math. Helv. 26, 1-5 (1952; Zbl 0046.022)].\}
