Hailstone Editor 1 #include Problem Statement Take a number, n. If n is even, divide it by 2. If odd, multiply by 3 and add 1. Repeat with the new number, forever or until you get the number 1. For instance, suppose you start with the number 3: 3 string sequence(int n) f 4 cout <
My assignment wants me to program the hailstone series. I have done that, but my program isn't executing because I did not put it in the format of returning a string, instead I cout the n value. How can I make it so it returns the series as a string?

Hailstone Editor 1 #include <string> Problem Statement Take a number, n. If n is even, divide it by 2. If odd, multiply by 3 and add 1. Repeat with the new number, forever or until you get the number 1. For instance, suppose you start with the number 3: 3 string sequence(int n) f 4 cout <<n <<""; 5- whileCn-1) 6 7 if(n%2-0)( Since 3 is odd, you multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 9+1-10 Since 10 is even, you divide by 2 to get 5 Since 5 is odd, you multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 16 Since 16 is a power of 2, you will repeatedly divide by 2, getting 8, 4, 2, and 1 in that order cout << n<<"" }else if(n%2-1)( 10 cout << n<<"" The sequence of numbers produced by this procedure is known as a hailstone sequence. The hailstone sequence beginning with 3 is therefore "3 10 5 16 8 4 21". The Collatz conjecture, proposed by Lothar Collatz in 1937, is that the hailstone sequence for any starting number always terminates; that is, it always reaches 1. This conjecture is unproven at this time, but is easy to verify for small n 12 13 14 15 Your task for this lab is to produce the hailstone sequence for an arbitrary starting value. You are given an int value n, and asked to return a string containing the hailstone sequence beginning at n. The string should contain each number in the sequence in order, separated by single spaces. There should be no leading or trailing spaces Constraints . The input n will be between 1 and 100, inclusive Test Submit
