Divisor Count of 264

Example of Use of Divisor Counting Function

 * $\map \tau {264} = 16$

where $\tau$ denotes the divisor counting (tau) function.

Proof
From Divisor Counting Function from Prime Decomposition:
 * $\ds \map \tau n = \prod_{j \mathop = 1}^r \paren {k_j + 1}$

where:
 * $r$ denotes the number of distinct prime factors in the prime decomposition of $n$
 * $k_j$ denotes the multiplicity of the $j$th prime in the prime decomposition of $n$.

We have that:
 * $264 = 2^3 \times 3 \times 11$

Thus:

The divisors of $264$ can be enumerated as:
 * $1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, 22, 24, 33, 44, 66, 88, 132, 264$
