Problem Statement
Take a number, n. If n is even, divide it by 2. If odd, multiply by 3 and add
1. Repeat with the new number, forever or until you get the number 1. For
instance, suppose you start with the number 3:
3 string sequence(int n) f
4 cout <<n <<"";
5- whileCn-1)
6
7
if(n%2-0)(
Since 3 is odd, you multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 9+1-10
Since 10 is even, you divide by 2 to get 5
Since 5 is odd, you multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 16
Since 16 is a power of 2, you will repeatedly divide by 2, getting 8, 4,
2, and 1 in that order
cout << n<<""
}else if(n%2-1)(
10
cout << n<<""
The sequence of numbers produced by this procedure is known as a
hailstone sequence. The hailstone sequence beginning with 3 is therefore
"3 10 5 16 8 4 21". The Collatz conjecture, proposed by Lothar Collatz in
1937, is that the hailstone sequence for any starting number always
terminates; that is, it always reaches 1. This conjecture is unproven at this
time, but is easy to verify for small n

Your task for this lab is to produce the hailstone sequence for an arbitrary
starting value. You are given an int value n, and asked to return a
string containing the hailstone sequence beginning at n. The string
should contain each number in the sequence in order, separated by single
spaces. There should be no leading or trailing spaces
Constraints
. The input n will be between 1 and 100, inclusive
