    Perfect Number

    Basic definition

    A perfect number is a positive integer that equals the sum of its divisors.

    Detailed definition

    Perfect numbers are positive integers n such that n = s(n), where s(n) is the restricted divisor function (i.e., the sum of proper divisors of n), or equivalently σ(n) = 2n, where σ(n) is the divisor function (i.e., the sum of divisors of n including n itself).
