%N Euclid-Mullin sequence (A000945) with initial value a(1)=5 instead of a(1)=2.

%C The initial primes 3 and 7 give essentially A000945.

%e 5*2*11*3 + 1 = 331, which is prime; the least prime factor of 330*331 + 1 = 109231 = 19*5749 is 19, so a(6) = 19.

%t a[1]=5; a[n_] := First[ Flatten[ FactorInteger[ 1+Product[ a[ j ], {j, 1, n-1} ] ] ] ]; Array[a, 10]

%o (PARI) spf(n)=my(f=factor(n)[1,1]);f;

%o first(m)=my(v=vector(m));v[1]=5;for(i=2,m,v[i]=spf(1+prod(j=1,i-1,v[j])));v; \\ _Anders Hellström_, Aug 15 2015
