Achilles numbers is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

An Achilles number is a number that is powerful but imperfect. Named after Achilles, a hero of the Trojan war, who was also powerful but imperfect.


A positive integer n is a powerful number if, for every prime factor p of n, p2 is also a divisor.

In other words, every prime factor appears at least squared in the factorization.

All Achilles numbers are powerful. However, not all powerful numbers are Achilles numbers: only those that cannot be represented as mk, where m and k are positive integers greater than 1.


A strong Achilles number is an Achilles number whose Euler totient (𝜑) is also an Achilles number.


E.G.

108 is a powerful number. Its prime factorization is 22 × 33, and thus its prime factors are 2 and 3. Both 22 = 4 and 32 = 9 are divisors of 108. However, 108 cannot be represented as mk, where m and k are positive integers greater than 1, so 108 is an Achilles number.

360 is not an Achilles number because it is not powerful. One of its prime factors is 5 but 360 is not divisible by 52 = 25.

Finally, 784 is not an Achilles number. It is a powerful number, because not only are 2 and 7 its only prime factors, but also 22 = 4 and 72 = 49 are divisors of it. Nonetheless, it is a perfect power; its square root is an even integer, so it is not an Achilles number.


500 = 22 × 53 is a strong Achilles number as its Euler totient, 𝜑(500), is 200 = 23 × 52 which is also an Achilles number.


Task
  • Find and show the first 50 Achilles numbers.
  • Find and show at least the first 20 strong Achilles numbers.
  • For at least 2 through 5, show the count of Achilles numbers with that many digits.
