I'm am completely stumped on a seemingly simple math formula

I need to find a way to map a set of numbers up to 4 (e.g. 1,2,3,4 or 1,2)
to any number in a range of up to 10,000 (ideally, unlimited). Such that,

(e.g. 1,2,3,4)

1 is to 1
2 is to 2
3 is to 3
4 is to 4

5 is to 1
6 is to 2
7 is to 3
8 is to 4

9 is to 1
10 is to 2 
11 is to 3
12 is to 4

13 is to 1
14 is to 2
15 is to 3
16 is to 4

And so on...

Is anyone good at math, that can throw me a bone?

Thanks y'all,
Mike D
