Heavy Numbers 4.1 Background on heavy numbers 4.1.1 The heavy sequence A sequence of numbers (the heavy sequence) y 0y 1y 2y 3y n is defined such that each number is the sum of digits squared of the previous number, in a particular base. Consider numbers in base 10 , with y 0=12 The next number in the sequence is y 1=1 2+2 2=5 The next number in the sequence is y 2=5 2=25 The next number in the sequence is y 3=2 2+5 2=29 4.1.2 Heaviness It turns out that for each number y 0and base N, the heavy sequence either converges to 1 , or it does not. A number whose sequence converges to 1 in base N is said to be "heavy in base N" 4.2 Program requirements Write a function heavy that takes as arguments a number y and a base N and returns whether that number y is heavy in the base N provided. Here are examples: heavy (4,10) False > heavy (2211,10) True heavy (23,2) True heavy (10111,2) True heavy (12312,4000) False 4.2.1 Value Ranges The number y will always be non-negative, and the base N will always satisfy 2N4000 since 1959 when the official data on the poverty rate began, the poverty rate was at its highest in group of answer choices 1959. 1968. 1977. 1986. a hypnotic horror that hounded them to hell"" is an example of When the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Japanese yen changes from $1 = 100 yen to $1 = 90 yen: All Japanese producers and consumers will lose.
