The \textit{sepr-sequence} of an n×n real matrix A is (s1,…,sn), where sk is the subset of those signs of +,−,0 that appear in the values of the k×k principal minors of A. The 12×12 matrix 000000b1b30000000000b2b4b700000000000b800000000000−b90000000000b5b100000000000−b6b11000000000000c1000000000000c2000000000000c3a1000000000000a2000000000000a3a4a5a6000000 does always have sk={0,+,−} if k=3,6,9 and sk={0} otherwise, provided that the variables are positive. However, every principal 9×9 minor that is not identically zero can take values of both signs.
