Determine the value of E10.
Suppose that the function f is defined recursively on P by
Then
(a) Show that f(11) also equals 1.
(b) Show that f(9), f(14), and f(25) all equal f(11) and so all equal 1.
(c) Write a program to find f(27).
// Do you think this function will always evaluate to 1? No matter what n you
// start with? Look up “Collatz’s conjecture” or the “Hailstone problem” on
// the web.
