A proof of the collatz conjecture


Author(s): Zhang Yue

Abstract: Using the mathematical induction, the present paper proves that with respect to all of the arbitrary positive natural numbers, if the starting number n is odd, let it become 3n+1, if it is even, let it become n÷2, successively carry on the calculation in terms of the rule, eventually, the result will always become 1. Therefore, the paper proves the Collatz conjecture.
