Lists are a good way of getting information across quickly to the user in a structured manner. There are three different lists we can produce - unordered, ordered and definitions lists. The appearance of list elements should be defined with CSS. Unordered lists - The ul element is used to create an unordered list (a list of items that have no specified order, unlike a numbered list for example). Items in the list are defined with the li element. Ordered lists - The ol element is used to create an ordered list (numbered). Items in the list are defined with the li element. An ordered list creates the same list as the previous example, but numbered rather than using bullet points. Definition - The dl element is used to create an ordered list. Definition Lists consists of term/definition pairs. Terms are defined with the dt element, and definitions are defined with the dd element.

A list is written as a set of zero or more terms between square brackets. If there are no terms in a list, it is said to be empty, and is written as `[]'. In this first set of examples, all members of each list are explicitly stated: [aa, bb,cc] [X, Y] [Name] [[x, y], z] In the second set of examples, only the first several members of each list are explicitly stated, while the rest of the list is represented by a variable on the right-hand side of the “rest of” operator, `|': [X | Y] [a, b, c | Y] [[x, y] | Rest] `|' is also known as the “list constructor.” The first element of the list to the left of `|' is called the head of the list. The rest of the list, including the variable following `|' (which represents a list of any length), is called the tail of the list.

n. A multi-element data structure that has a linear (first, second, third, . . .) organization but that allows elements to be added or removed in any order. Queues, deques, and stacks are simply lists with restrictions on adding and removing elements. See also deque, element (definition 1), linked list, queue, stack.
