Is 1 a perfect number???

I now know 1 is not a prime number, it is unitary. Is 1 a perfect number??? its olny factor is 1 therefore the sum of factors is 1. Or is it a special case again?

Yes it's another special case, for​ perfect numbers it's the of the of factors add up to it's self, not including itself. So the sum for 1 is zero, and not perfect. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_number
