Enumerations

Fixed set of names representing a single type of value

Use enumerations to represent a fixed set of named values, where all the values are of the same kind. You can derive enumeration classes from other classes, such as built-in numeric types. The enumeration members then inherit arithmetic and ordering operations of the superclass.
