How to number sections in LaTeX?
Hello I'm new to latex so don't know much. I'm writing my lab report (prl,aps,revtex4-1 etc) and I want the sections to be numbered in Roman numerals but I can't seem to figure it out. For example my first section is introduction so I've done
section{Introduction}
so it just says introduction and it's not numbered
I've tried many things but nothing seems to work however i found this works
setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
However I am also being marked on my coding (I'm a first year uni student)
I was wondering if this is the correct code for numbering sections and I'm not entirely sure what the number at the end means either please help.
Thank you :)

Welcome to TeX SX! Could you post a minimal code reproducing the problem, that we can play with?

in the standard classes sections have level 1 and secnumdepth is 3 so sections are numbered by default, presumably you are using a non standard class that sets it (to 0?) to stop sections being numbered.
