public class ListItem
extends Paragraph
```
A ListItem is a Paragraph that can be added to a List.
Example 1:
```
 List list = new List(true, 20);
 list.add(new ListItem("First line"));
 list.add(new ListItem("The second line is longer to see what happens once the end of the line is reached. Will it start on a new line?"));
 list.add(new ListItem("Third line"));
 
```
The result of this code looks like this:
1. First line
2. The second line is longer to see what happens once the end of the line is reached. Will it start on a new line?
3. Third line
Example 2:
```
 List overview = new List(false, 10);
 overview.add(new ListItem("This is an item"));
 overview.add("This is another item");
 
```
The result of this code looks like this:
- This is an item
- This is another item
