 ===== Waiting for Sequences to Finish =====
+Usually at some stage in your program you have to wait for a given sequence to finish until the program should continue. There are two methods to accomplish this, ''wait()'' and ''waitAndTerminate()''. \\
+The former waits for a given sequence to finish running. It returns as soon as all the steps defined in the sequence have completed to run. However, it does not terminate the associated thread. This allows to restart the same sequence with ''start()'' later on in the program. \\
+On the other hand, ''waitAndTerminate()'' does also wait for all the steps defined in the sequence to have completed. Further, it will terminate the associated thread and return only after successful elimination of the thread object. After this, the sequence cannot be restarted. \\ \\
