Magma can only be run on the magma partition !

Description

Magma is a software package designed for computations in algebra, number theory, algebraic geometry, and algebraic combinatorics. It provides a mathematically rigorous environment for defining and working with structures such as groups, rings, fields, modules, algebras, schemes, curves, graphs, designs, codes, and many others. Magma also supports a number of databases designed to aid computational research in those areas of mathematics which are algebraic in nature.

An example of a magma program – Syracuse sequence

• Display the Syracuse sequence from a random number between 1 and 100.
• Edit syracuse.in file :

x := Random(1, 100);
while x gt 1 do
     x;
     if IsEven(x) then
       x div:= 2;
     else
        x := 3*x+1;
     end if;
end while;
