EXAMPLE

495 = 3*3*5*11 has 4 prime factors and 12 divisors, while 496 = 2*2*2*2*31 has 5 prime factors but only 10 divisors, so 495 is a term.

728 = 2*2*2*7*13, 729 = 3*3*3*3*3*3, and 730 = 2*5*73 have 5, 6, and 3 prime factors and 16, 7, and 8 divisors, respectively, so both 728 and 729 are terms.

127251 = 3*3*3*3*1571, 127252 = 2*2*29*1097, 127253 = 7*7*7*7*53, and 127254 = 2*3*127*167 have 5, 4, 5, and 4 prime factors, and 10, 12, 10, and 16 divisors, respectively, so 127251, 127252, and 127253 are all terms.
