collatz

This script is an attempt to brute force the Collatz Conjecture (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=094y1Z2wpJg) by showing that the subset of numbers with specific trailing digits converge. The idea is to perform calculations on large numbers >2^64 by processing them as binary strings. Script is functional but not optimized. Running shows convergence for 99.99% of all natural numbers before reaching limits for built-in data types.
