... now you've completed defining the function factors...

> def main():
>      factors = 0

... and here you create an integer of the same name...

>      counter = 0
>      L = []
>      while len(L) < 50:
>          counter += 1
>          L.append(counter)
>          Tn = sum(L)
>          x = factors(Tn)

... and here you attempt to call the interger factors passing it the 
argument Tn

>          #print x
>      print(sum(L))


Also, in the future please post the complete traceback  -- it relly helps.
