  Station Information - Deficient number
In mathematics, a deficient number (also sometimes called a defective number) is a number n for which the sum of all its positive divisors (including n, the divisor function, σ(n)) is less than 2 n ; the value 2 n - σ(n) is sometimes called the deficiency of n.
Deficient numbers were first introduced in Nicomachus' Introductio Arithmetica (circa 100).
An infinite number of both even and odd deficient numbers exist; for example, all prime numbers, prime powers and all proper divisors of deficient or perfect numbers are deficient.

In mathematics, an abundant number (also sometimes called an excessive number) is a number n for which the sum of all its positive divisors (including n, the divisor function, σ(n)) is greater than 2 n ; the value σ(n) - 2 n is sometimes called the abundance of n.
An infinite number of both even and odd abundant numbers exist (for example, all multiples of 12 and all odd multiples 945 are abundant); furthermore, every proper multiple of a perfect number and every multiple of an abundant number is abundant.

 Perfect number
A perfect number is an integer which is the sum of its proper positive divisors ( factors), not including the number itself.
Nowadays, prime numbers generated by the formula are known as Mersenne primes, after the seventeenth-century monk, Marin Mersenne, who studied number theory and perfect numbers.
Numbers where the sum is less than the number itself are called deficient, and where it is greater, abundant ; these terms, together with perfect itself, come from Greek numerology.

 abundant number : Definition from the Online Dictionary at Datasegment.com
Imperfect number (Math.), a number either greater or less than the sum of its several divisors; in the former case, it is called also a defective number ; in the latter, an abundant number.
Imperfect power (Math.), a number which can not be produced by taking any whole number or vulgar fraction, as a factor, the number of times indicated by the power; thus, 9 is a perfect square, but an imperfect cube.
This is opposed to a deficient number, as 14, whose aliquot parts are 1, 2, 7, the sum of which is 10; and to a perfect number, which is equal to the sum of its aliquot parts, as 6, whose aliquot parts are 1, 2., 3.

A deficient number is lacking in the sense that the sum of its proper factors (all its positive factors excluding itself) is less than the number itself.
For example, the number two was associated with "opinion"; four was associated with "justice"; the number five was associated with "marriage" since it was the union of the first even number, 2, and what they considered to be the first odd number, 3.
The number one was not considered to be a number at all, but was thought of as the divine generator of all numbers.

It is possible to diagnose alcoholism in primary care by sending a serum to a hospital laboratory for determination of a protein formed in the liver: carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT).
A number of studies show that carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a superior biochemical indicator of long-lasting high intake of alcohol.
The results show a sensitivity of92 percent at a consumption of 50-80 grams of alcohol per 24 hour-period during at least one week whereas specificity is given as 87 percent.
