    Abstract: A method for determining an assembly sequence of an assembling toy including a plurality of assembling elements disposed in a virtual space, Each of the assembling elements have at least one coupling part complementarily coupled to another coupling part, and connected to another assembling element through the coupling part, including a previously assembled element assembled to the assembling toy in the virtual space and a target assembling element that not yet assembled. The method for determining an assembly sequence includes: determining an assembly group in consideration of an upper surface height of the target assembling element connected to the previously assembled element, the upper surface height is calculated on the basis of a height from a ground to an upper surface of the target assembling element; and determining whether to generate a sub assembly group in consideration of the number of the assembling elements included in the assembly group.
