Question

Create a flowchart and a java program using while/do-while that accepts as input an integer value N (assume N > 1) and prints out the Ulam sequence that begins with the input value N.

Required: The .java file (FamilyName_Ulam.java) containing the code, the flowchart; 2 output image files  (Sample1 and Sample2);

REPETITION CONTROL STRUCTURE (WHILE, DO-WHILE)
Instruction:
A mathematician named Ulam proposed generating a sequence of numbers from any
positive integer N greater than 1 using the following procedure:
If N is 1, stop.
If N is even, replace it with N/2.
If N is odd, replace it with 3 *N + 1.
Continue with this process until N reaches 1.
Here are some examples of the Ulam sequence for the first few integers.
2, 1
3, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
4, 2, 1
5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
6, 3, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
Sample Input/Output:
Depicted below are sample outputs when the program is executed (the items in bold
characters are input from the user, while the items in bold italic are calculated and
printed by the program):
Input N: 14
Ulam Sequence:
Input N: 5
Ulam Sequence:
5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
14, 7, 22, 11, 34, 17, 52, 26, 13, 40, 20, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
