COMMENT

These are the integers N which on application of the Collatz function yield the number 17. The Collatz function: if N is an odd number then (3N+1)/2^r yields a positive odd integer for some value of r (which in this case is 17).

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := 4a[n - 1] + 1; a[1] = 11; Table[ a[n], {n, 1, 25}]
