    In particular, τ(n) equals the product of the incremented by 1 exponents from the prime signature of n. For example, 20 has prime signature {2,1} and so the number of divisors is (2+1) × (1+1) = 6. Indeed, there are six divisors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10 and 20. The smallest number of each prime signature is a product of primorials. The first few are:
