enumerate

     \begin{enumerate}
     \item First item
     \item Second item
     ....
     \end{enumerate}

The enumerate environment produces a numbered list. Enumerations can be nested within one another, up to four levels deep. They can also be nested within other paragraph-making environments.

There must be at least one `\item` command within the environment.

Each item of an enumerated list begins with an `\item` command. The optional `label` argument of the `\item` command, if given, suppresses incrementing the counter. If not given the default labels are taken from the counters, `enumi, enumii, enumiii, enumiv` for the four allowed levels of nesting, respectively.

The numbering style for the enumeration is determined by the commands, `\labelenumi`, `\labelenumii`, etc., for the nested levels. These may be redefined with the `\renewcommand` command.

For example, to use upper case letters for the first level and lower case letters for the second level of enumeration:

      \renewcommand{\labelenumi}{\Alph{enumi}}
      \renewcommand{\labelenumii}{\alph{enumii}}
