Thank you very much. I understand it now.
By the way, what is the most important role of "sequence" in
fortran?

The significance of SEQUENCE is that identically-declared types will be treated as identical (i.e. if you were to repeat your declaration of type(ccc) in a subroutine, it would be identical to the type(ccc) declared in the module and one could be used as an actual argument corresponding to the other as a dummy argument). The name implies that the memory layout will be exactly as declared, but the standard does not actually impose such a requirement.
