It's not clear what the pattern is, so the problem can't be answered.

The strings "1234" and "4321" alternate, with certain numbers of 0's between those strings.

However, the sequence of the numbers of 0's between strings is 1, 2, 3, 5, ... -- and there is no definite pattern there.
1234  string A
0              1 zero
4321  string B
00             2 0's
1234  string A
000            3 0's
4321  string B
00000          5 0's
