COMMENTS
Technically, the formula is undefined modulo 2# or 3#, but I have listed their values as "0", since there are no 10's in the first differences of their reduced residue systems. For our purposes, by "10's", we mean n such that n,n+10 are relatively prime to the primorial modulus, while n+1,n+2,n+3,n+4,n+5,n+6,n+7,n+8,n+9 all share a factor (or factors) with p#.

FORMULA
a(n) = 4*product(p-2) - 6*product(p-3) + 2*product(p-4), where p runs through the primes > 5 and <= prime(n).
