Different types of lists?

[Jenkler]

How do i get an ordered list?

• a
• v
• b

I want to be able todo this

1 a
2 v
3 b

Stupid question?

Do you mean numbered list? Something like:

1. One
2. Two
3. Three

If so, you should use numbers followed by periods:

Markdown supports ordered (numbered) and unordered (bulleted) lists.
Unordered lists use asterisks, pluses, and hyphens — interchangably — as list markers.
Ordered lists use numbers followed by periods:
1. Bird
2. McHale
3. Parish

Ok, so if i need auto numbers i can do this

1
1
1
1

followed by a .

Or is there a better way todo this?
