A number such as which is the Sum of some (or all) of its Proper Divisors. A semiperfect number which is the Sum of all its Proper Divisors is called a Perfect Number. The first few semiperfect numbers are 6, 12, 18, 20, 24, 28, 30, 36, 40, ... (Sloane's A005835). Every multiple of a semiperfect number is semiperfect, as are all numbers for and a Prime between and (Guy 1994, p. 47).
A semiperfect number cannot be Deficient. Rare Abundant Numbers which are not semiperfect are called Weird Numbers. Semiperfect numbers are sometimes also called Pseudoperfect Numbers.
