Are passwords comprised of key sequences on a keyboard any less secure than the same characters but jumbled up?



Here are two passwords:



5678%^&*tyuiTYUI


and



8^tyU75%*IuY6T&i


Both have the same number of characters and in each the characters are identical, the only difference is that the first arranges those characters in a pattern that lends itself strongly to muscle memory by following a simple geometric pattern of keypresses.


Are then any significant differences from a security perspective?
