/* The program is to compute a number ,show the process of the hailstone.
 * hailstone number: Start with any positive integer (an initial seed)
 * and obtain a sequence of numbers by following these rules.
 * 1. If the current number is even, divide it by two   ; 
 *   else if it is odd, multiply it by three and add one. 
 * 2. Repeat.
 * 
 * Let's try a few numbers to see what happens: 
 *  n=3; 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, ... 
 *  n=4; 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, ... 
 *  n=5; 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, ... 
 *  n=6; 3, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, ... 
 *  n=7; 22, 11, 34, 17, 52, 26, 13, 40, 20, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, ...
