I think your formula should say
tn = n^2 + 1 , n > 1
t<sub>n</sub> is the usual terminology for "term number n"
of course n would have to be a whole number,
and an expression such as term "number minus 4" does not make a lot of sense.
so the first n you could use is n = 2
and your first 4 terms would be
5, 10, 17, and 26
let me know if the input accepted those values.
