Comments and Lists

In HTML there are two types of lists <ul> and <ol.

<ul> stands for unordered list, which is the classical list with bullet points.

<ol> stands for ordered list in which its items are marked with numbers.

Each item of both lists starts with <li> tag, which stands for list item, and ends with </li>.

By default a <ol> will start counting from 1. 

However, we are able to change the start point, reverse the counting or even use alphabetical characters.

Examples
