A075480 Number of iteration that first becomes smaller than the initial value if Collatz-function (A006370) is iterated, starting with numbers of form 64n+39. Corresponds to selection of every 16th term from A074474. +0

COMMENT

Remark that initial values of form 64m+r, if r={3,11,19,27,35,43,51,55} provide first-sink-lengths {7,9,7,9,7,9,7,9} respectively; e.g. {64k+19,192k+58,96k+29,288k+88,144k+44,72k+22,36k+11} submerge first below initial value at the 7th term,36k+11<64k+19.

FORMULA

a(n)=A075473[64n+39], n=0, ..., 256

EXAMPLE

n=0: 64n+39=39,list={{39,118,59,178,89,268,134, 67,202,101,304,152,76,38,19,58....}, i.e. the 14th term=38 is the first that <39, the initial value, so a(0)=14.

CROSSREFS
