The polynomial 2*n^2 + 11 first fails to produce a prime for n = 11, giving 253 = 11 * 23. - Alonso del Arte, Sep 04 2016

Let P(n) = 2*n^2 + 11. The polynomial P(2*n - 10) = 8*n^2 - 80*n + 11 produces prime values (not distinct) for n = 0 to 10. The polynomial P(3*n - 19) = 18*n^2 - 228*n + 733 produces distinct prime values for n = 0 to 9. - Peter Bala, Apr 16 2018
