What term describes a sequence of events to follow so they can be repeated?

Script

A predetermined sequence of actions that you can repeat is best described as a script. In computing and automation, a script lists the exact commands or steps to execute in order, so you can run it again later and reproduce the same workflow without re-creating the sequence. This makes repetition effortless and reliable, which is why it fits the idea of following a set of events to be repeated.

A procedure also involves steps to complete a task, but it’s typically framed as how humans should perform it, whereas a script emphasizes automated, repeatable execution. An algorithm is a precise, well-defined set of instructions aimed at solving a problem, usually focusing on inputs and outputs and the reasoning process rather than carrying out a routine workflow. A checklist, on the other hand, is a list of items to verify or complete, not a full sequence of actions to be executed.
