Search Results for: Balances without weights
the collatz conjecture confine you to a loop: , , , , , , , on and on forever. over the years, many problem solvers have been drawn to the beguiling simplicity of the collatz conjecture, or the " x + problem," as it's also known. mathematicians have tested quintillions of examples (that's zeros) without
that's smaller than where you started — weak evidence, but evidence nonetheless, that almost all collatz sequences incline toward . from until tao's result this year, ivan korec held the record for showing just how much smaller these numbers get. other results have similarly picked at the problem without...
