title: How does one change the \paragraph formatting in LaTeX
body: <p>This stems out of <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/543208/how-can-one-number-paragraphs-in-latex">How can one number paragraphs in LaTeX?</a>, which I asked earlier today:</p>
  
  <p>Running with <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/users/9634/brent-longborough">Brent.Longborough</a>'s suggestion for how to number paragraphs in a document:</p>
  
  <pre><code>\setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
  ...
  \paragraph{If we want to}
  \paragraph{do something}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This results in LaTeX producing something likeso:</p>
  
  <pre><code>0.0.0.1 If we want to 
  0.0.0.2 do something
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can one change the numbering scheme of <em>\paragraph{}</em> to produce something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>1. If we want to
  2. do something
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or alternatively</p>
  
  <pre><code>A. If we want to
  B. do something
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
