Have you got an idea to do this?

If you can't read my code, try converting it here[^]

List<int> positions = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
for (int n = 1, p1 = 0, p2 = 4; n <= 10; ++n, ++p1, ++p2)
{
  p1 %= positions.Count;
  p2 %= positions.Count;
  Console.WriteLine("{0,2} {1} {2}", n, positions[p1], positions[p2]);
}

  int n = 23;
  p1 = ?
  p2 = ?
...

p1 = (n-1) % positions.Count;
p2 = (positions.Count + n - 2) % positions.Count;

public List<int> GetPositions(int n, int posCount)
{
  int pos1 = n % posCount;
  int pos2 = pos1 == 0 ? posCount - 1 : pos1 - 1;
  return new List<int>{pos1, pos2}; 
}
...
int n = 0;
List<int> positions = new List<int>{0,1,2,3,4};
while( n < 10)
{
  List<int> res = GetPositions(n, positions.Count)
  Console.WriteLine("Count{0}: Pos1 {1} - Pos2 {2}", n, res[0], res[1]);
  n++;
}

A format item has this syntax:

{index[,alignment][:formatString]}

...
alignment
Optional. A signed integer that indicates the total length of the field into which the argument is inserted and whether it is right-aligned (a positive integer) or left-aligned (a negative integer). If you omit alignment, the string representation of the corresponding argument is inserted in a field with no leading or trailing spaces.
