A little game?

@MichaelT Spot on - I am measuring how hard should I make it, so obviously this one was too simple, but kudos to you.

Thanks.

@MichaelT 5*5=25/2=12.5, unless of course this person simple wants us to round the number up multiplying by 5 and halving it wouldn't give us the exact figure. Little nit picky i know but thought i'd just point it out.

@sumojumo What gift will I get ? lol

@MichaelT Well, I am not a very rich person, but I sent you a little token of appreciation :)

@Aiminna There are multiple ways in which one could look at this. Originally I wanted to look at the number, if it is odd then multiply by 5 and add 1, if it is even, just divide by two. There is an interesting problem which is called Collatz conjecture, that deals with a similar problem (it is time 3 instead of 5), which is actually very hard. Just FYI :)

@sumojumo I sincerely appreciate it. And I will cherish your gift immensely. Keep up the good work.

I really like it when I see intelligent people on here. Logical thinking is what I do and I appreciate those who can do it. You have good numerical ability.

@sumojumo Thanks for posting this question.

@SW-User You are very welcome, I am also very happy to see such nice responses. Next time I will put some more effort into such a question, so it will be a bit more challenging :)

Please do. This site needs more posts like this. I really appreciate your willingness to do so in future. @sumojumo

@SW-User Absolutely, I think there is enough of us to change the general "taste" of this place ;)

Ha ha ha. That’s for sure. I’ll be by your side anyday. @sumojumo

@SW-User Thanks man, I appreciate it.
