How to read this
- The prime factors are what the number is made of. The count and sum of divisors both follow from them.
- Add the divisors, take the number away, and you get perfect, abundant or deficient.
- The length of the binary form is the bit count. 255 taking eight digits is what a byte is.
- Collatz: halve it if even, triple it and add one if odd. The count is how many moves reach 1.
