This program helps you to learn the fundamental structure and syntax of Python programming.

Try This Code
# Program to check abundant number

num = int(input("Enter a positive integer: "))

if num <= 0:
    print("Number must be positive.")
else:
    total = 0
    for i in range(1, num):
        if num % i == 0:
            total += i

    if total > num:
        print(num, "is an abundant number")
    else:
        print(num, "is not an abundant number")
Output
Enter a positive integer: 12
12 is an abundant number

Understanding Check Abundant Number

An abundant number has sum of proper divisors greater than the number itself.

We reuse the divisor-summing pattern and compare with num.
