== Perfect Number ==
In number theory, a perfect number is a positive integer
that is equal to the sum of its positive divisors, excluding
the number itself.
For 6 ==> divisors[1, 2, 3, 6]
Excluding 6 sum(divisors) = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6
So, 6 is a Perfect Number

Other examples of Perfect Numbers: 28, 486, ...

def perfect(number: int) -> bool:
divisors = []
for i in range(1, ((number // 2) + 1)):
"""
starting from 1 as division by 0
will raise error.
A number at most can be divisible
by the half of the number except
the number itself
6 at most can be divisible by 3
except 6 itself

Check again.

>>> a = True
>>> print(f"a is {'' if a else 'not '}True.")
a is True.
>>> a = False
>>> print(f"a is {'' if a else 'not '}True.")
a is not True.
