FORMULA

a[n]=Min[x; A051614(x)=p(n)=A000040(n)]

EXAMPLE

n=14:p[14]=43 and an Euclid-Mullin sequence started

with a[14]=2=p(1) is {2,3,7,43,13,53,5,6221671,38709183810571,139,..} is

A000945, the prototype EM-sequence.

n=7:a[7]=541, the 100th prime, with EM sequence as follows:

{541,2,3,17,139,7,1871,100457892907,19,11047..}, where the 4th

term equals p[n]=p[7]=17.

It is characteristic but not so simple congruence

relations holds of Mod[term[1],term[4]] form for

various first or 4rd primes, not necessarily smallest ones.

See comment to A094464.
