EXAMPLE
G_1(8) = B_2(8)-1 = B_2(2^(2+1))-1 = 3^(3+1)-1 = 80;
G_2(8) = B_3(2*3^3+2*3^2+2*3+2)-1 = 2*4^4+2*4^2+2*4+2-1 = 553;
G_3(8) = B_4(2*4^4+2*4^2+2*4+1)-1 = 2*5^5+2*5^2+2*5+1-1 = 6310;
G_4(8) = B_5(2*5^5+2*5^2+2*5)-1 = 2*6^6+2*6^2+2*6-1 = 93395;
G_5(8) = B_6(2*6^6+2*6^2+6+5)-1 = 2*7^7+2*7^2+7+5-1 = 1647195;
G_6(8) = B_7(2*7^7+2*7^2+7+4)-1 = 2*8^8+2*8^2+8+4-1 = 33554571;
G_7(8) = B_8(2*8^8+2*8^2+8+3)-1 = 2*9^9+2*9^2+9+3-1 = 774841151.
