I've reduced the number of ranges for counting untouchable numbers.     It seems the upper limit for searching for touchable numbers was far higher than I guesstimated.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 09:28, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 
 
== Number of untouchable numbers up to 1 million ==
 
According to [https://www.numbersaplenty.com/set/untouchable_number/ one of the OEIS links] there are 150,232 untouchable numbers up to 1e6 so it looks like the REXX result (150,233) is off by one here.

I've managed to isolate the 'awkward' number which is 816,422. The (first) number whose proper divisors sum to this is 19,175,641 its divisors being [1, 29, 151, 841, 4379, 22801, 126991, 661229]. This explains why we need a sieve factor between 19 and 20 to catch it since neither 816,421 or 816,419 is prime. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 11:33, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
