Number theorists have defined many different types of numbers, such as 'deficient', 'abundant', 'social', 'quasi-perfect', 'multi-perfect', … the list goes on. Each of these types are rich fields in themselves, so I will largely restrict myself to perfect numbers, while also calling on deficient and abundant numbers.

And a further list of multiply perfect numbers sorted only by their factorizations (built from the 5271 MPNs of the master list and gziped 199 kB). It has each line cut down to 120 columns and no discovery information or comments are given.
