COMMENT

Here r in most of the cases comes out to be Smarandache number given by A002034. It is conjectured that a(n) = n + S(n)

Dean Hickerson (dean.hickerson(AT)yahoo.com) remarks that the above conjecture is easy to prove: (n+1)(n+2)...(n+r) is congruent to r! (mod n), so n divides (n+1)(n+2)...(n+r) if and only if n divides r!. Oct 07, 2001

EXAMPLE

a(6) = 9 as 6 divides 7 X 8 X 9 but does not divide 7 X 8.

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := For[r=1, True, r++, If[Mod[r!, n]==0, Return[n+r]]]

CROSSREFS

a(n) = n + A002034(n)
