In Book IX of The Elements, Euclid gave a method for constructing perfect numbers, although this method applies only to even perfect numbers. In a 1638 letter to Mersenne, Descartes proposed that every even perfect number is of Euclid's form, and stated that he saw no reason why an odd perfect number could not exist. Descartes was therefore among the first to consider the existence of odd perfect numbers; prior to Descartes, many authors had implicitly assumed (without proof) that the perfect numbers generated by Euclid's construction comprised all possible perfect numbers. In 1657, Frenicle repeated Descartes' belief that every even perfect number is of Euclid's form and that there was no reason odd perfect number could not exist. Like Frenicle, Euler also considered odd perfect numbers.

Club Z! has connected me with a tutor through their online platform! This was exactly the one-on-one attention I needed for my math exam. I was very pleased with the sessions and ClubZ’s online tutoring interface.
My son was suffering from low confidence in his educational abilities. I was in need of help and quick. Club Z! assigned Charlotte (our tutor) and we love her! My son’s grades went from D’s to A’s and B’s.
I’ve been using Club Z’s online classrooms to receive some help and tutoring for 2 of my college classes. I must say that I am very impressed by the functionality and ease of use of their online App. Working online with my tutor has been a piece of cake. Thanks Z.
Jonathan is doing really well in all of his classes this semester, 5 A’s & 2 B’s (he has a computer essentials class instead of PLC). In his Algebra class that Nathan is helping him with he has an A+.
Sarah is very positive, enthusiastic and encourages my daughter to do better each time she comes. My daughter’s grade has improved, we are very grateful for Sarah and that she is tutoring our daughter. Way to go ClubZ!
