    Map this out as a function with term number n and value
    1, 0
    2, 7
    3, 14
    4, 21

    The values jump by 7, but they do so as the n - 1 term.

    We have the series formula S(n) = 7(n - 1)

    The problem asks for S(1000)
    S(1000) = 7(1000 - 1)
    S(1000) = 7(999)
    S(1000) = 6,993
