Given a finite presentation for a group G and a natural number c the program computes the largest nilpotent quotient group of G of class at most c in form of a nilpotent presentation allowing efficient computation in the quotient group. The program can handle a variety of Engel type identities. It is also available as part of GAP and Magma.
