sequence

n. progression, succession; series of things in succession; order, arrangement; chain of events; series of scenes which make up one episode of a film (Cinema); consequence, outcome; (Genetics) order of monomers within a polymer chain (esp. nucleotides within DNA)

For other senses of this word, see sequence (disambiguation).In mathematics, a sequence is an ordered list of objects (or events). Like a set, it contains members (also called elements or terms), and the number of terms (possibly infinite) is called the length of the sequence. Unlike a set, order matters, and the exact same elements can appear multiple times at different positions in the sequence.
