    Enumerates
    DotNetJunkies
    In this article, Pierre demonstrates how the class System.Enum can be useful. He also runs through an example of the new functionality applied to enums through the .NET Framework.
    Extolling the Virtues of Enumerated Types
    MSDN
    Most programmers are already familiar with enumerated types. But just to review, an enumerated type defines a set of symbolic names and values. Of course, a programmer can always write a program using 0 to represent red, 1 to represent green, and so on. However, there are at least two reasons why you shouldn't hardcode numbers into their code and should instead use an enumerated type.
    Using Enumerations in C#
    The Code Project
    In C# we can use the enum keyword to create our own enumerated types. C# maps enum to System.Enum and thus we can use several member functions provided by System.Enum on our enum types. Instead of explaining more I take you straight to the sample program I have written to demonstrate how enum can be used. The program is well-commented, but if you have any doubts I'd be glad to help you out if it is within my capability.
