\begin{enumerate}
    \item If, for example, you were making a test or a homework
    assignment, you can use the ``enumerate'' commands to write the questions.
    \item Each ``item'' will be given its own designated number.
    \item If you had a question with multiple parts, you can specify
    them by starting another ``enumerate'' command.
        \be
            \item This could be the first part of the question.
            \item This could be the second.
            \item And so on.
        \ee
