To use this formula, you start of with a value on the first term, but theoretical, it'd turn out like this:

a1=a1-1=a0

a2=a2-1=a1

a3=a3-1=a2

a4=a4-1=a3

a5=a5-1=a4

Where a0 would be your starting term (this formula is based on the previous term, and that's why you must have a value to start off with).
