I'm going to keep this section short, demonstrating only two types of LaTeX lists: enumerate and itemize.


The followiong code creates the numbered list (graphic) after it.

\noindent Numbered lists:
\vskip.1in
\begin{enumerate}
   \item Rent
    \item Credit
    \item Utilities
\end{enumerate}

The followiong code creates the bulleted list (graphic) after it.

\noident Unnumbered lists:
\vskip.1in
\begin{itemize}
   \item Rent
   \item Credit
   \item Utilities
\end{itemize}
