Mersenneplustwo Factorizations

Mersenneplustwo numbers are those integers that are two more than a Mersenne prime. Mersenne primes are of the form 2^p-1 (http://www.mersenne.org/). This makes Mersenneplustwo numbers of the form 2^p+1. This project aims to find the factors (ie integer divisors) of Mersenneplustwo numbers.
