Visualising Collatz Conjecture

This is a simple visualisation of the Collatz Conjecture Problem.

The conjecture is take a positive integer:

• If it is an odd number: We multiple by 3 and add 1

• If it is an even number: We divide by 2

We keep applying these rules, until we reach a loop of 4 -> 2 -> 1.

Because every positive number will end up in the 4,2,1 loop.

I based it off Veritasium’s explanation

So far this is the result I have gotten with 1000:

Increasing the number only follows the same pattern.

Here’s the animated version:

This is just a simple project, in no way I am a expert at math or this conjecture. I just thought this would be a interesting project.

The code is avaliable here.
