EXAMPLE

a(1)=1 because 2*1+1=3 is prime a(2)=2 because 2*1*2+1=5 is prime a(3)=3 because 2*1*2*3+1=13 is prime 2*1*2*3*4+1=49 is not prime (omitted) a(4)=5 becuase 2*1*2*3*5+1=61 is prime

MATHEMATICA

k = 2; a = {}; Do[If[PrimeQ[k n + 1], k = k n; AppendTo[a, n]], {n, 1, 3000}]; a (*Artur Jasinski*)
