The movie is based on the 2013 South Korean movie of the same name directed by Lee Hwan-kyungThe movie revolves around Lito (Aga Muhlach), a mentally challenged man who was wrongfully accused of killing the daughter of Secretary Yulo (Tirso Cruz III) as well as his attempt to keep relations with his own daughter YeshaNo. 7 is a 2019 Philippine drama movie directed by Nuel Crisostomo Naval and starring Aga Muhlach and Bela Padilla.
"""
Euler discovered the remarkable quadratic formula:
n2 + n + 41
It turns out that the formula will produce 40 primes for the consecutive values
n = 0 to 39. However, when n = 40, 402 + 40 + 41 = 40(40 + 1) + 41 is divisible
by 41, and certainly when n = 41, 412 + 41 + 41 is clearly divisible by 41.
The incredible formula  n2 − 79n + 1601 was discovered, which produces 80 primes
for the consecutive values n = 0 to 79. The product of the coefficients, −79 and
1601, is −126479.
Considering quadratics of the form:
n² + an + b, where |a| < 1000 and |b| < 1000
where |n| is the modulus/absolute value of ne.g. |11| = 11 and |−4| = 4
Find the product of the coefficients, a and b, for the quadratic expression that
produces the maximum number of primes for consecutive values of n, starting with
n = 0.
