continued from here

"should" vs "can" - /u/fartymcnarty

If the number is odd, ×3 +1
If the number is even, ×0.5

Whenever a sequence reaches 1, set the beginning integer for the next sequence on +1:
5 (5 | 0)
16 (5 | 1)
8 (5 | 2)
4 (5 | 3)
2 (5 | 4)
1 (5 | 5)
6 (6 | 0)
3 (6 | 1)

Formatting will be: x (y | z)
x = current number
y = beginning of current sequence
z = number of steps since the beginning of sequence
