\begin{proof}
\begin{align*}
&\{\dot{0}\} \subset \{\dot{0},\dot{2}\} \subset \Z/4\Z\
&\{(\dot{0},\dot{0})\} \subset \{(\dot{0},\dot{0}),(\dot{0},\dot{1})\} \subset \Z/2\Z	imes \Z/2\Z\
\end{align*}
are composition series whose factors are of order 2, so are isomorphic to $\Z/2\Z$. Yet the two groups $\Z/4\Z, \Z/2\Z	imes \Z/2\Z$ are not isomorphic, since $\Z/4\Z$ has one element of order 2, and $\Z/2\Z	imes \Z/2\Z$ has 3 such elements.
\end{proof}
