Line numbers

Lovelace puts a number in front of each line by default. If you want no numbers at all, you can set the line-numbering option to none. The initial example then looks like this:

#pseudocode-list(line-numbering: none)[
  + do something
  + do something else
  + *while* still something to do
    + do even more
    + *if* not done yet *then*
      + wait a bit
      + resume working
    + *else*
      + go home
    + *end*
  + *end*
]

(You can also pass this keyword argument to #pseudocode.)

If you do want line numbers in general but need to turn them off for specific lines, you can use - items instead of + items in #pseudocode-list:

#pseudocode-list[
  + normal line with a number
  - this line has no number
  + this one has a number again
]

It’s easy to remember: - items usually produce unnumbered lists and + items produce numbered lists!

When using the #pseudocode function, you can achieve the same using no-number:

#pseudocode(
  [normal line with a number],
  no-number[this line has no number],
  [this one has a number again],
)
