It is known as series.
An algorithm.
A spatial sequence refers to a set of events separated in space - irrespective of their separation in time. A time sequence is the other way around. Sequences need not repeat themselves, but are more interesting to many people if they are. An example of a repeating spatial sequence may be the pattern of bricks in a wall. The pattern repeats itself after some distance. An example of a repeating time sequence is the seasons of the year.
Something that repeats it's self is redundant.

Areas of sunshine and shadow vary according to the movement of the sun throughout the day, and that is pattern that repeats itself every day with slight variations as seasons change.
Watch the pattern until it repeats itself.

It the pattern continues as ssa ssa, then 's' would be next in the sequence. This is only if the pattern is a recurring pattern. If the pattern continues without recurrence of the given sequence, then 'a' would be next, because if 's' repeats itself twice, then 'a' would also.
The definition of a pattern that repeats itself is recurring and the correct term is recurrence. This can also be said to be monotonous

Blues music repeats itself in a specific 12 bar harmonic pattern.
The concept of a pattern is a subjective thing. For example 1,2,1,2,1,2 is a pattern, so is 0,1, 0,0,1, 0,0,0,1, 0,0,0,0,1, 0,0,0,0,0,1 (which never repeats itself). But is 31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31 (days in a month)? Some people may say yes, others no.
