    THE goal of this game is to figure out the number pattern
    For instance
    1 1 2 3 5 8 13
    The answer would be add the 2 numbers together to get the next
    Try to give atleast 5 numbers

    Begin

    3 6 30 870 756030

    Easy, x*(x-1) with a starting value of 3.
    3*2 = 6, 6*5 = 30, 30 * 29 = 870 & 870*869 = 756030.

    Next: 2, 8, 18, 50, 98, 242, 338

    You know that 1 isnt a prime number right?

    But anyway:

    2 = 2 * (1^2)
    8 = 2* (2^2)
    18 = 2*(3^3)
    50 = 2*(5^2)
    98 = 2*(7^2)
    242 = 2*(11^2)
    338 = 2*(13^2)


    next one would be 578 = 2*(17^2)
