You have to define an original sequence containing sequences.
Hope following example will help.

sequence testSeq
testSeq = repeat({}, 14)

for i = 1 to 14 do
    testSeq[i] = append(testSeq[i], i) -- first item of testSeq[1] is atom
testSeq[i] = append(testSeq[i], {}) -- second item of testSeq[1] itself is a
    sequence
testSeq[i][2] = append(testSeq[i][2], i) -- first item of the testSeq[1][2]
    is again atom... and so on
end for

VOID = message_box(sprintf("Length of testSeq: %d", length(testSeq)), "Info",
MB_ICONINFORMATION)
VOID = message_box(sprintf("Length of testSeq[1]: %d", length(testSeq[1])),
"Info", MB_ICONINFORMATION)
VOID = message_box(sprintf("Length of testSeq[1][2]: %d",
length(testSeq[1][2])), "Info", MB_ICONINFORMATION)
