Enum is Enumeration to store a set of named constants like year, product, month, season, etc.
The default value of Enum constants starts from 0 and increments. It has fixed set of constants and can be traversed easily.
Let us see an example.
We have set the enum like this −
public enum Vehicle { Car, Bus, Truck }
The following is the complete example.
using System; public class Demo { public enum Vehicle { Car, Bus, Truck } public static void Main() { int a = (int)Vehicle.Car; int b = (int)Vehicle.Bus; int c = (int)Vehicle.Truck; Console.WriteLine("Car = {0}", a); Console.WriteLine("Bus = {0}", b); Console.WriteLine("Truck = {0}", c); } }
Car = 0 Bus = 1 Truck = 2
