A 2-tag system computes a Collatz variant. It is an iterative function that if a number N is odd it returns (3N+1)/2 and if N is even it returns N/2; It is currently unknown if there is a number that doesn't eventually return to 1.

    Slovaks and Czechs were a part of Austria-Hungary once so it makes sense

    collatz conjecture explained : if odd do x*3+1=z if z is a even number, dvide by two to get new x

    DoomKittyAttack: I think it has to be integers that are > 0

    I have no idea how this works but still nice +1

    Fun fact - pie or dessert is called "kolac" in Slovak, sounds quite similar

    try 0 (0 is even so /2 which is zero which is even... and so on)

    It would be nice if there was a digital number desplay aswell as the line. Other than that it is very good +1.
