Example of Unordered List of Type Disc:

Exemplary Code:

<ul>
    <li>I'm the first element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the second element of the ordered list</li>                  
    <li>I'm the third element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the fourth element of the ordered list</li>
</ul>

Example Result:

• I'm the first element of the ordered list
• I'm the second element of the ordered list
• I'm the third element of the ordered list
• I'm the fourth element of the ordered list

In the above example we are using an unordered list. We have not defined its type as by default it's type is 'disc'.

Example of Unordered List of Type Circle:

Exemplary Code:

<ul type="circle">
    <li>I'm the first element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the second element of the ordered list</li>                  
    <li>I'm the third element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the fourth element of the ordered list</li>
</ul>

Example Result:

• I'm the first element of the ordered list
• I'm the second element of the ordered list
• I'm the third element of the ordered list
• I'm the fourth element of the ordered list

In the above example we are using an unordered list of type 'circle'.

Example of Unordered List of Type Square:

Exemplary Code:

<ul type="square">
    <li>I'm the first element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the second element of the ordered list</li>                  
    <li>I'm the third element of the ordered list</li>
    <li>I'm the fourth element of the ordered list</li>
</ul>

Example Result:

• I'm the first element of the ordered list
• I'm the second element of the ordered list
• I'm the third element of the ordered list
• I'm the fourth element of the ordered list

In the above example we are using an ordered list of type 'i' starting from '3'. It also increases automatically by 1.
You can try other remaining types of the ordered list.
