Question

27 - Suppose that the first number of a sequence is x, in which x is an integer. Define a0 x; an+ 1 an/ 2 if an is even; an+ 1 3 an + 1 if an is odd. Then, there exists an integer k such that ak 1. Write a program that prompts the user to input the value of x. The program output the integer k such that ak 1 and the numbers a0, a1, a2, . . . , ak. ( For example, if x 75, then k 14, and the numbers a0, a1, a2, . . ., a14, respectively, are 75, 226, 113, 340, 170, 85, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1.) Test your program for the following values of x: 75, 111, 678, 732, 873, 2048, and 65535.
