Just as tables have been around forever, lists have too. But instead of
presenting tabular (two dimensional) material, lists are linear (one dimen-
sional). They can be numbered (or lettered) or just have bullets (or nothing
at all). And they can have sub-lists.

15.1 Basic Markup

If the list is to be numbered, we begin it with

(for “ordered list”) and
end it with

(required). We start each item with

and end it with

(optional).

If the list is to have bullets (un-numbered), we begin it with

(for
“unordered list”) and end it with

(required). We start each item
with

and end it with

(optional).
