Let P(m) = m/2 if m is even, m + rev(m) if m is odd, where rev(m) is m's base 10 representation reversed. It is conjectured that any number k eventually cycles when P is repeatedly applied to it. Sequence gives number of steps before the cycle is reached. |

EXAMPLE

5 -> 10 -> 5 -> ..., so 5 is already in a cycle and a(5) = 0. 13 -> 44 -> 22 -> 11 -> 22 -> ..., so a(13) = 2.
