concatenations

Sequences linked together

Concatenations are joinings of things in a chain or series.

The word appears most often in computing, where string concatenation links text segments end to end: The script performs several concatenations to build the filename.

Outside technical contexts, it describes any sequence of linked elements: a concatenation of events leading to disaster.
