The Hailstone sequence of numbers can be generated from a starting positive integer,   n   by:

   If   n   is     1     then the sequence ends.
   If   n   is   even then the next   n   of the sequence    = n/2 
   If   n   is   odd   then the next   n   of the sequence    = (3 * n) + 1 


The (unproven) Collatz conjecture is that the hailstone sequence for any starting number always terminates.



This sequence was named by Lothar Collatz in 1937   (or possibly in 1939),   and is also known as (the):

   hailstone sequence,   hailstone numbers
   3x + 2 mapping,   3n + 1 problem
   Collatz sequence
   Hasse's algorithm
   Kakutani's problem
   Syracuse algorithm,   Syracuse problem
   Thwaites conjecture 
   Ulam's problem


The hailstone sequence is also known as   hailstone numbers   (because the values are usually subject to multiple descents and ascents like hailstones in a cloud).



Task

 Create a routine to generate the hailstone sequence for a number.
 Use the routine to show that the hailstone sequence for the number 27 has 112 elements starting with 27, 82, 41, 124 and ending with 8, 4, 2, 1
 Show the number less than 100,000 which has the longest hailstone sequence together with that sequence's length.
   (But don't show the actual sequence!)
