Question

In python:

Not sure how to do a Collatz function.

Remember the Collatz function? If x is odd, then collatz(x) = 3 ⋅ x + 1 but if x is even
then collatz(x) = x/2. (remember to use // to divide by 2)
Start by writing a Collatz() function that returns the value for a given input. Test
this function for all numbers from 1 to 10.
Next write a Collatz2() method. This method should take in a single number and
repeatedly use the Collatz() function printing out the result while the number is not
one.
For example:
If I say Collatz2(5), Then the output should be :
5
16
8
4
2
1

If I say Collatz2(12), Then the output should be :
12
6
3
10
5
16
8
4
2
1

Once you know it is working, run your method on the number n = 27 and see how long
it takes to get to 1.

Answer 1

here is the python code in python 3:

===============================================================

Program:

===============================================================

def Collartz(n):

    print(n)

    while n != 1:

        if n%2 != 0:

            n = 3*n+1

            print(n)

        if n%2 == 0:

            n = n//2

            print(n)

n = int(input("Enter n: "))

Collartz(n)

==============================================================

Screen shot of the code..

def Collartz(n): print(n) while n!1: print(n) print(n) nint(input("Enter n: ") Collartz(n)

===============================================================

Output:

def Collartz(n): print(n) while n!1: print(n) print(n) nint(input("Enter n: ") Collartz(n)

Enter n: 27
