COMMENTS
The Collatz (or 3x+1) function is f(x) = x/2 if x is even, 3x+1 if x is odd.
The Collatz trajectory of n is obtained by applying f repeatedly to n until 1 is reached.
A078719(a(n)) = 7; A006667(a(n)) = 6.

EXAMPLE
The Collatz trajectory of 9 is (9, 28, 14, 7, 22, 11, 34, 17, 52, 26, 13, 40, 20, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1), which contains 7 odd integers.
