Audience:
In this video we will see what seeds put into the collatz function will take only the 3x+1 branch then only the x/2 branch before x = 1.

This is a cool bit of recreational mathematics, but it doesn’t seem that well suited to a math explainer video. To appeal to a broad audience, it needs more high-level motivation and potentially animations of these branches and observations. It is hard to make novel content about the Collatz Conjecture.

I really liked how you explained the problem simply in the video and then introduced your unique question. One suggestion I have is to create more visualizations/animations in addition to showing the code or slides to help with engagement, and also share why this problem is interesting and valuable.
