For small numbers, this should be straightforward ...
@divisors = grep { $number % $_ == 0 } 1 .. $number;
I would not worry about optimizing this, unless
you need it for very many or very big numbers ...
but then it would be something like this:
# First, the lower half of the divisors:
@divisors = grep { $number % $_ == 0 } 1 .. sqrt($number);
# Then, the upper half:
push @divisors, map {$number == $_*$_ ? () : $number/$_} reverse @divi
+sors;
(Sorry, I missed the Math::BigInt stuff ... but I guess the algorithm above can be adapted to that case as well?)
Update: Most of my code could benefit from comments. I added comments to the optimized version. Never code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code can always maintain a proper caffeine intake.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
