Unordered Lists: The <ul> tag, which is a block tag, creates an unordered list. Each item in a list is specified with an <li> tag (li is an acronym for list item). Any tags can appear in a list item, including nested lists. When displayed, each list item is implicitly preceded by a bullet.

<h1> Some Common Single-Engine Aircraft </h1>
<ul>
<li> Cessna skyhawk</li>
<li> Beechcraft Bonaza</li>
<li> piper Cherokee</li>
</ul>

Ordered Lists:
✦ Ordered lists are lists in which the order of items is important. This orderedness of a list is shown in the display of the list by the implicit attachment of a sequential value to the beginning of each item. The default sequential values are Arabic numerals, beginning with 1. An ordered list is created within the block tag <ol>.
✦ The items are specified and displayed just as are those in unordered lists, except that the items in an ordered list are preceded by sequential values instead of bullets.

Definition Lists: ✦As the name implies, definition lists are used to specify lists of terms and their definitions, as in glossaries. A definition list is given as the content of a <dl> tag, which is a block tag.
✦ Each term to be defined in the definition list is given as the content of a <dt> tag. The definitions themselves are specified as the content of $lt;dd> tags.
✦ The defined terms of a definition list are usually displayed in the left margin; the definitions are usually shown indented on the line or lines following the term.
