EXAMPLE
For n=2, a(2)=3 is the minimum absolute value determinant of a back circulant Latin square of order 2. An example of one such matrix is [[2 1], [1 2]].
For n=5, a(5)= 75 is the minimum absolute value determinant of a back circulant Latin square of order 5. An example of one such matrix is [[1, 2, 4, 5, 3], [3, 1, 2, 4, 5], [5, 3, 1, 2, 4], [4, 5, 3, 1, 2], [2, 4, 5, 3, 1]] has determinant 75.
