      [Description (
          "AssignedSequence is an unsigned integer 'n' that indicates "
          "the relative position of members within a Collection. When "
          "'n' is a positive integer, it indicates a place in the "
          "sequence of members, with smaller integers indicating "
          "earlier positions in the sequence. The special value '0' "
          "indicates 'don't care'. If two or more members have the "
          "same non-zero sequence number, then the ordering between "
          "those members is irrelevant, but they must all be ordered "
          "at the appropriate place in the overall sequence. \n"
          "\n"
          "A series of examples will make ordering of members clearer: "
          "\nIf all members have the same sequence number, \n"
          "regardless of whether it is '0' or non-zero, any \n"
          "order is acceptable. \n"
          "o The values: \n"
          "1:MEMBER A \n"
          "2:MEMBER B \n"
          "1:MEMBER C \n"
          "3:MEMBER D \n"
          "indicate two acceptable orders: A,C,B,D or C,A,B,D, \n"
          "because A and C can be ordered in either sequence, but \n"
          "only at the '1' position. \n"
          "\n"
          "Note that the non-zero sequence numbers do not need to "
          "start with '1', and they do not need to be consecutive. "
          "However, the sequence numbers must reflect their relative "
          "magnitude.")]
