 ### Forecast types
 
 `scoringutils` currently supports scoring the following forecast types: 
+
 - `binary`: a probability for a binary (yes/no) outcome variable.
 - `point`: a forecast for a continuous or discrete outcome variable that is represented by a single number.
 - `quantile`: a probabilistic forecast for a continuous or discrete outcome variable, with the forecast distribution represented by a set of predictive quantiles.
