(defn next-term [n] (if (= (mod n 2) 0) (/ n 2) (inc (* n 3)))) (defn count-terms [n] (if (= 1 n) 1 (inc (count-terms (next-term n)))))
(time (let [pair (juxt identity count-terms) pairs (map pair (range 1 100000))] (println (first (apply max-key second pairs))))) It looks even? is the culprit here. The code above executes in < 1 sec on my machine. So it looks like even? needs to repaired to account for the numeric changes.
