> patron, is a theme of reoccurring events or objects,
> sometimes referred to as elements of a set. These
> elements repeat in a predictable manner. It can be a
> template or model which can be used to generate things
> or parts of a thing, especially if the things that are
> created have enough in common for the underlying
> pattern to be inferred, in which case the things are
> said to exhibit the unique pattern.

> SA continues:  A pattern from these above definitions
