numbered lists
Ranked item collections
A numbered list is a sequence of items marked with consecutive numerals rather than bullets or other symbols.
The numbering typically implies order, priority, or steps in a process: Follow these steps in order.
Numbered lists appear in instructions, rankings, and outlines where sequence matters.
