Lists[edit | edit source]
There are two kinds of lists.
- Unordered Lists, in which items are listed in no particular order and are bulleted.
- Ordered Lists, in which items are numbered for various reasons.
Unordered Lists[edit | edit source]
Unordered lists are created by putting an asterisk in front of each item on the list. And each item must be on a separate line and no gap between the asterisk and the left side of the page.
This is an example of the code:
*Item one
*Item two
*Item three
The unordered list will look like this when it is saved:
- Item one
- Item two
- Item three
NOTICE that each item is on a separate line.
NOTICE that each item has a round "bullet" in front of it.
Ordered List[edit | edit source]
Order lists are created by putting a pound sign in front of each item on the list:
Here is the code:
# Item one
# Item two
# Item three
The ordered list will look like this when it is saved:
- Item one
- Item two
- Item three
NOTICE each item is on a separate line.
NOTICE each item has a number in front of it.
