Derive a formula for the product of the first n members of an arithmetic progression with an initial element a and a common difference d;(a*d>0).
Verify the validity of your expression for (a,d,n)=(2,3,8).

From the web: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression#Product

The product of the members of a finite arithmetic progression with an initial element a₁, common differences d, and n elements in total is determined in a closed expression  ETC
