 Basically,
 {{{
 Sage uses divisors(n) for the number (usually denoted d(n)) of divisors of
 n and sigma(n,k) for the sum of the kth powers of the divisors of n (so
 divisors(n) and sigma(n,0) are the same). For example:

 is wrong - we can most easily change this to have
 {{{
 Sage uses divisors(n) for the list of (positive) divisors of n and
 sigma(n,k) for the sum of the kth powers of the divisors of n (so
 sum(divisors(n)) and sigma(n,0) are the same). For example:
