Sequence
Definition:
(n.) The state of being sequent; succession; order of following; arrangement.
(n.) That which follows or succeeds as an effect; sequel; consequence; result.
(n.) Simple succession, or the coming after in time, without asserting or implying causative energy; as, the reactions of chemical agents may be conceived as merely invariable sequences.
