To print the bold list numbers of a paragraph using Python, we need to extract the text containing the bolded numbers and print them.

Here is an example code snippet that extracts the bold list numbers from a paragraph:

# import necessary libraries
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import re

# sample paragraph
paragraph = '''
1. This is the first line of the paragraph.
<strong>2. This is a bolded line.</strong>
3. This is the third line of the paragraph.
<strong>4. This is another bolded line.</strong>
5. This is the fifth line of the paragraph.
'''

# parse the paragraph using BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(paragraph, 'html.parser')

# find all the bolded lines
bold_lines = soup.find_all('strong')

# extract the bold list numbers
bold_numbers = [re.search(r'\d+\.', line.string).group() for line in bold_lines]

# print the bold list numbers
print(bold_numbers)

Output:

['2.', '4.']

In this code, we first parse the paragraph using BeautifulSoup and then extract all the bolded lines using the find_all() method. We then use a regular expression to extract the bold list numbers from each bolded line and store them in a list. Finally, we print the list of bold list numbers.
