ANSWER== point-2
1st jump point-5 to point-1 (as it jumps one point for odd and direction is clockwise)
2nd jump point-1 to point-2
3rd jump point-2 to point-4(as it jumps two points for even)
4th jump point-4 to point-1
now for every three jumps it returns to point-1 as point-1 to point-2 to point-4 to point-1

now 2015-4= 2011/3 = gives remainder 1
at 2015th jump it jumps point-1 to point-2
