SEQUENCE OF STEPS

Most activities have multiple steps that need to be carried out in order to perform
a task involved. The order of steps for solving a problem is called Sequence of steps.

Some tasks involve a fixed sequence of steps. For example, to change the used
battery in a clock, the sequence of steps to be performed is:

1. Remove the exhausted battery from the clock.
2. Take a fresh battery and install it in the clock.

3. Set the correct time on the clock.
4. Dispose the used battery carefully in the dustbin.
