In 1937, German mathematician L. Collatz proposed the following
conjecture: for any positive integer, if it is even, divide it by 2, if it
is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1 to get an even number.
Continuing with the above rule, the final result will be 1. This paper
gives a proof of this conjecture.
