3n+1 Problem aka Collatz Problem
This is some very weird stuff indeed. The 3n+1 problem is essentially this.
Step 1: if n=1 then stop
Step 2: if n is odd then n=3n+1
Step 3: else n=n/2
Step 4: goto Step 1
The problem is to find out whether or not all of the 3n+1 sequences converge which appears to be unknown right now.
