Homework SourseWrite a Java program to solve the problem below This program
Write a Java program to solve the problem below. This program should use recursion to solve the problem. Test you program with the given test data for the problem.
Problem: Collatz
Write a recursive method that calculates the length of the collatz sequence for a given input. The collatz sequence for an input may be calculated as follows. If the current value is even, the next value is that number divided by two (n/2). If the current value is odd, the next value is that number multiplied by three and then incremented (3n+1). This process continues until the next value is 1
For input = 3 the collatz sequence would be {3,10,5,16,8,4,2,1}. Only positive inputs (greater than 1) will be given! collatz(3) returns 8.
Solution
The java program for Collatz is as below:
import java.util.stream.LongStream;
public class Collatz
{
static final short[] CALC_CACHE = new short[Integer.MAX_VALUE-8];
public static int calculate(long c)
{
if (c == 1) {
return 0;
}
int steps;
if (c < CALC_CACHE.length) {
steps = CALC_CACHE[(int) c];
if (steps > 0)
return steps;
}
if (c % 2 == 0)
{
steps = calculate(c / 2) + 1;
}
else
{
steps = calculate((c * 3 + 1) / 2) + 2;
}
if (c < CALC_CACHE.length)
{
if (steps > Short.MAX_VALUE)
throw new AssertionError();
CALC_CACHE[(int) c] = (short) steps;
}
return steps;
}
static int calculate2(long n) {
int numSteps = 0;
long c = n;
while (c != 1)
{
if (c < CALC_CACHE.length)
{
int steps = CALC_CACHE[(int) c];
if (steps > 0)
{
numSteps += steps;
break;
}
}
if (c % 2 == 0)
{
numSteps++;
c /= 2;
}
else
{
numSteps += 2;
if (c > Long.MAX_VALUE / 3)
throw new IllegalStateException(\"c is too large \" + c);
c = (c * 3 + 1) / 2;
}
}
if (n < CALC_CACHE.length)
{
CALC_CACHE[(int) n] = (short) numSteps;
}
return numSteps;
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
long maxN = 0, maxSteps = 0;
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
long[] res = LongStream.range(1, 6_000_000_000L).parallel().collect(
() -> new long[2],
(long[] arr, long n) -> {
int steps = calculate(n);
if (steps > arr[0]) {
arr[0] = steps;
arr[1] = n;
}
},
(a, b) -> {
if (a[0] < b[0])
{
a[0] = b[0];
a[1] = b[1];
}
});
maxN = res[1];
maxSteps = res[0];
long time = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;
System.out.printf(\"After %.3f seconds, maxSteps: %,d for: %,d%n\", time / 1e3, maxSteps, maxN);
}
}
