WILLITST - Will it ever stop

#ad-hoc-1

When Bob was in library in University of Warsaw he saw on one of facades caption :"Will it ever stop?" and below some mysterious code:

while n > 1
  if n mod 2 = 0 then
    n:=n/2
  else
    n:=3*n+3

Help him finding it out !

In first line one number n<=10^14.

Print "TAK" if program will stop, otherwise print "NIE"

Input:
4

Output:
TAK

	kamesh11: 2018-03-15 15:05:34 AC in one go!!!
	rv111: 2018-03-14 11:51:58 successfully wasted an hour by using NIL against of NIE; but learned a new thing that some people says that their code fails at that test case etc.. so guys it's not that if u get wrong answer after any test case than it might be wrong, it may be your first test case, mine always fails at 20 so it's not that mine first 19 are all correct,
	eddie_codes: 2018-03-14 07:44:30 Instead of maps and bruteforce it's fun to think of what's actually happening in the function itself...........try to generate a math formula such that,as soon as you substitute 'n' in your formula you should get the output....in other words try for a single liner...

	ayusofayush: 2018-02-15 12:37:33 AC in one go ;) just check for 1-10 cases and see the pattern if 3,6,12 occurs make the loop infinite or use bits manipulation
	quock: 2018-02-06 04:47:16 Look tutorial of bit manipulation.
	true_idiot: 2018-01-02 16:37:05 Weak test case :( doesn't check when n=0.
	akhand_mishra: 2018-01-02 13:22:54 use unsigned long long. 3 WA for that. look for the pattern
	sophozaar: 2017-12-14 11:16:47 ":=" is "=". The colon is the misprint I guess.
	metahost: 2017-11-06 06:01:36 long long costed WA!
