The nth commutativity degree of nonabelian metabelian groups of order at most 24

A group G is metabelian if and only if there exists an abelian normal subgroup A such that the factor group, G A is abelian. Meanwhile, for any group G, the commutativity degree of a group is the probability that two randomly selected elements of the group commute and denoted as P(G). Furthermore, t...
