EXAMPLE
a(1) = prime(1)^1 mod prime(1+1) = 2^1 mod 3 = 2 mod 3 = 2,
a(2) = prime(2)^2 mod prime(2+1) = 3^2 mod 5 = 9 mod 5 = 4,
a(3) = prime(3)^3 mod prime(3+1) = 5^3 mod 7 = 125 mod 7 = 6,
a(4) = prime(4)^4 mod prime(4+1) = 7^4 mod 11 = 2401 mod 11 = 3,
a(5) = prime(5)^5 mod prime(5+1) = 11^5 mod 13 = 161051 mod 13 = 7.
