Description list Formatting using enumitem
3
I have a few lines of text that I want to be aligned to look like this:
Here is the MWE:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumitem}
begin{document}
begin{description}[labelindent=1em ,labelwidth=1.2cm, labelsep*=1em, leftmargin =!, itemindent= 0pt, style = sameline]
item[Input:] $a_1,ldots,a_m$
item[Output:] Can we do some operation on the given input to get some outcome using this methodology and using $a_1,ldots,a_m$?
end{description}
end{document}
which provides me the output:
As alternatives, I have also tried using hspace, tried eqnarray to no avail.

Seems you try to layout an pseudocode or algorithm. Do you know the packages with that names (see CTAN)?

Well, not really, it is part of a text, and I wanted to write it separately as Input/Output thats all.

I have been going through enumitem manual and dont you think its possible to set a specific width for the item label so that the item text doesnt come under it?

You can use for example leftmargin =3cm, to get what you want.
See the complete code
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumitem}
begin{document}
begin{description}[%
labelindent=1em,
labelwidth=1.2cm,
labelsep*=1em,
leftmargin =3cm, % <==================================================
itemindent= 0pt,
style = sameline
]
item[Input:] $a_1,ldots,a_m$
item[Output:] Can we do some operation on the given input to get some outcome using this methodology and using $a_1,ldots,a_m$?
end{description}
end{document}
