Problem 21 : Amicable numbers
Problem Statement
Let d(n) be defined as the sum of proper divisors of n (numbers less than n which divide evenly into n). If d(a) = b and d(b) = a, where a ≠ b, then a and b are an amicable pair and each of a and b are called amicable numbers.
For example, the proper divisors of 220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55 and 110; therefore d(220) = 284. The proper divisors of 284 are 1, 2, 4, 71 and 142; so d(284) = 220.
Evaluate the sum of all the amicable numbers under 10000.
Solution
def divisor(x):
lt=[]
for i in range(1,x):
if x%i==0:
lt.append(i)
return lt
def d(s):
return sum(divisor(s))
am_num=[]
for i in range(1,10000+1):
a=d(i)
b=d(a)
if b==i and a!=i:
am_num.append(i)
print (sum(am_num))
Output
