    This is my approach to solve this challenge! 

    int find_nth_term(int n, int a, int b, int c) {
    int ans = 0, ansa, ansb, ansc;
    if(n == 1) ans = a;
    if(n == 2) ans = b;
    if(n == 3) ans = c;
    if(n == 4) ans = c + b + a;
    if(n > 4) {
        ansc = find_nth_term(n - 3, a , b , c);
        ansb = find_nth_term(n - 2, a , b , c);
        ansa = find_nth_term(n - 1, a , b , c);
        ans += ansa + ansb + ansc;
    }
    return ans;
}
