The document compares two discrete plots from 500 data points. The first plot graphs the divisor function DivisorSigma[1,n] which sums the divisors of the first n natural numbers. The second plot simply graphs the function 3*n. When the two plots are shown together, the divisor function plot initially grows faster than the linear function but eventually the linear function surpasses it as n increases.
