Question
4.15 LAB: Hailstone sequence
Given a positive integer n, the following rules will always create a sequence that ends with 1, called the hailstone sequence:
- If n is even, divide it by 2
- If n is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1 (i.e. 3n +1)
- Continue until n is 1
Write a program that reads an integer as input and prints the hailstone sequence starting with the integer entered. Format the output so that ten integers, each separated by a tab character (\t), are printed per line.
The output format can be achieved as follows:
print(n, end='\t')
Ex: If the input is:
25the output is:
25 76 38 19 58 29 88 44 22 11 34 17 52 26 13 40 20 10 5 16 8 4 2 1Expert Solution

- write in pythonarrow_forwarduse a while loop to solve this problem. This is a Java programarrow_forward***Microsoft Visual Studios (C++)*** Write a program that given two coordinate pairs and a third single coordinate will linearly interpolate or extrapolate the third second coordinate. For example, let's say at 50 degrees Celsius the length of a metal rod is 5.4 cm and at 60 degrees Celsius the length is 5.5cm. I can interpolate the length at 53 degrees Celsius by doing 5.4cm + 3*(.1/10)=5.43cm. Your program does not need to continuously run, but should prompt the user for two coordinate pairs, the third first coordinate and return the extrapolated or interpolated third second coordinate.arrow_forward

A positive integer greater than 1 is composite if it is not prime. Write a program that asks the user to enter an integer greater than 1, then displays all of the prime numbers that are less than or equal to the number entered The program should work as follows: Once the user has entered a number, the program should populate a list with all of the integers from 2 up through the value entered. The program should then use a loop to step through the list. The loop should pass each element to a function that displays the element whether it is a prime number.arrow_forwardPlease read the instructions carefully: This is a Java programarrow_forward
- PrimeAA.java Write a program that will tell a user if their number is prime or not. Your code will need to run in a loop (possibly many loops) so that the user can continue to check numbers. A prime is a number that is only divisible by itself and the number 1. This means your code should loop through each value between 1 and the number entered to see if it’s a divisor. If you only check for a small handful of numbers (such as 2, 3, and 5), you will lose most of the credit for this project. Include a try/catch to catch input mismatches and include a custom exception to catch negative values. If the user enters 0, the program should end. Not only will you tell the user if their number is prime or not, you must also print the divisors to the screen (if they exist) on the same line as shown below AND give a count of how many divisors there are. See examples below. Your program should run the test case exactly as it appears below, and should work on any other case in general.
