FORMULA
a(n) * a(n-5) = a(n-1) * a(n-4) + a(n-1) * a(n-2) * a(n-3) * a(n-4).
a(4-n) = a(n).
Let b(n) = b(n-4) * (b(n-2) * (b(0) * b(1) * ... * b(n-3))^2 + 1) with b(0) = b(1) = b(2) = b(3) = 1, then a(n) = a(n-1) * b(n-1) = b(0) * b(1) * ... * b(n-1) for n > 0.
EXAMPLE
a(5) = a(4) * b(4) = 1 * 2 = 2,
a(6) = a(5) * b(5) = 2 * 2 = 4,
a(7) = a(6) * b(6) = 4 * 3 = 12,
a(8) = a(7) * b(7) = 12 * 9 = 108.
