Counters

Everything LaTeX numbers for you has a counter associated with it. The name of the counter is the same as the name of the environment or command that produces the number, except with no \. Below is a list of the counters used in LaTeX's standard document styles to control numbering.

 part            paragraph       figure          enumi
