COMMENT
|
The Collatz (or 3x+1) function is f(x) = x/2 if x is even, 3x+1 if x is odd.
The Collatz trajectory of n is obtained by applying f repeatedly to n until 1 is reached.
Sequence is 2-automatic.
The sequence consists of terms of A002450 and their 2^k multiples. The first odd integer in the trajectory is one of the terms of A002450 and the second odd one is the terminal 1. - Antti Karttunen Feb 21 2006
