listing

Post by tarektarek »

Hi,
I Want to list several things, I ll use
\begin{enumerate}
\item
\end{enumerate}

How about if I want to use letters instead of numbers in my listing, what should I do?

Regards,

There are several alternatives; for example,

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}

\begin{enumerate}
  \item[a.] First item
  \item[b.] Second item
\end{enumerate}

\renewcommand\theenumi{\alph{enumi}}
\begin{enumerate}
  \item First item
  \item Second item
\end{enumerate}

\end{document}
To further customise the list-like environments, you can use the enumitem package.
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,...
