C# Tutorials - enumerators (enum)

Enumerators in C#

 

Enumerators provide a way to improve code readability by representing values as names. So for instance, we may have a set of categories of Diary, Veg and Fruit which we could represent as 0,1 and 2. A better way is to use an enumerator as follows :

    
using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {

            Console.WriteLine("{0} ", Produce.Diary);            

        }
    }


    public enum Produce
    {
        None,Diary,Veg,Fruit
    }

}
