Text Formatting ⇒ Enumeration

[ojones]

I'm using

\begin{multicols}{2}
\begin{enumerate}
\item
\item
\end{enumerate}
\end{multicols}

to list problems in two columns. However, I'd like the numbering to incease going across the row, not down the column. Anyone know how to accomplish this? Thanks.

Hi,

you could use the multienum package. A little example (refer to the package documentation for further information):

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{multienum}

\begin{document}

\begin{multienumerate}
  \mitemxx{First}{Second}
  \mitemxx{Third}{Fourth}
  \mitemx{Fifth}
\end{multienumerate}

\end{document}

Thanks gmedina, this is what I was looking for. Much obliged.
