logical order

Sensible step progression

Logical order is an arrangement of elements according to a clear principle—chronological sequence, cause and effect, increasing complexity, or systematic categorization.

Instructions follow logical order when each step builds on the previous one.

Present your arguments in logical order.

The term implies that the arrangement makes sense rather than being arbitrary or random.
