Re: no. of divisers
Hi bobbym
I think we should stop chatting because it is abother persons thread, and also, we have already reached that magical point where I have no idea what you are talking about.
The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't.

Re: no. of divisers
Hi;
I know of nothing better than computing the divisors and then checking mod 4 for each one.
I have been researching the problem for something else but have not found anything.
Just finished reading 8 books on number theory, found 3 new was to compute the Jacobi symbol but did not find a shortcut for yours.

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
