The first six cyclotomic polynomials are x - 1, x + 1, x^2 + x + 1, x^2 + 1, x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1, and x^2 - x + 1.
By Schinzel's hypothesis H, this sequence is defined for all n.
a(7) > 2*10^9.

EXAMPLE
At x = 3, x-1 = 2, which is prime. At x = 4, x-1 = 3 and x+1 = 5, which are both prime. At x = 6, x-1 = 5, x+1 = 7, and x^2+x+1 = 43, which are all prime.
