"Also, every known pair shares at least one common factor": Isn't this obvious as 1 is always a common factor, or should it be at least two common factors? A nice homepage can be found under http://www.shyamsundergupta.com/amicable.htm Renger van Nieuwkoop 09:54, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

This article is very biased towards the achievements of Arab mathematicians. I'm not saying that they didn't contribute a lot but it just reads like a defence of their contribtion rather than a objective article about the subject and its history. I would put up a banner at the top of the page saying that the neuterality of this article is disputed but I don't know how to do that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.144.251.46 (talk) 14:26, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
