%N a(n) is the determinant of the 2 X 2 matrix whose entries (listed by rows) are the n-th prime ending in 1, 3, 7, 9 respectively.

%C All terms == 8 (mod 10).

%C Are there negative terms? The first 10^7 are positive.

%e The first primes ending in 1,3,7,9 are 11,3,7,19, so a(1) = 11*19 - 3*7 = 188.

%e The second primes ending in 1,3,7,9 are 31,13,17,29, so a(2) = 31*29 - 13*17 = 678.

%e The third primes ending in 1,3,7,9 are 41,23,37,59, so a(3) = 41*59 - 23*37 = 1568.
