Sixty-four is the square of 8, the cube of 4, and the sixth power of 2. It is the seventeenth interprime, since it lies midway between the eighteenth and nineteenth prime numbers (61, 67). The aliquot sum of a power of two (2n) is always one less than the power of two itself, therefore the aliquot sum of 64 is 63, within an aliquot sequence of two composite members (64, 63, 41, 1, 0) that are rooted in the aliquot tree of the thirteenth prime, 41
