What are different stacking pattern of atoms in simple cubic cell (SCC) , body cubic cell (BCC) and face centred cell (FCC) unit lattice cell ?

"AA AA AA...", the letters refer to the repeating order of the layers, starting with the bottom layer.

"AB AB AB ..." Type of stacking pattern present  a in body centred cubic (BCC).The considerable space shown between the spheres is misleading: spheres are closely packed in bcc solids and touch along the body diagonal.

"ABC ABC ABC..." type of stacking pattern is of face centered cubic (fcc) or cubic close packing (ccp) type.
