HTML Lists

In HTML, lists are used to organize and structure content in a specific order. There are three main types of lists: ordered lists, unordered lists, and definition lists.

Ordered Lists (<ol>):

Ordered lists are used when the sequence of items matters, and each item is numbered.
Items within an ordered list are represented by the <li> (list item) element.

Example

<ol>
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ol>

Unordered Lists (<ul>):

Unordered lists are used when the sequence of items doesn't matter, and each item is typically preceded by a bullet point
Items within an unordered list are also represented by the <li> element.

Example

<ul>
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ul>

Definition Lists (<dl>):

Definition lists are used to define terms and provide their corresponding definitions.
They consist of terms (<dt> - definition term) and their definitions (<dd> - definition description).

Example

<dt>Term 1</dt>
<dd>Definition 1</dd>
<dt>Term 2</dt>
<dd>Definition 2</dd>
</dl>
