No two enum members can have the same name. enum_member_declarations : enum_member_declaration (‘,’ enum_member_declaration)* ; enum_member_declaration : attributes? identifier (‘=’ constant_expression)?
How is the associated value of an enum assigned?
Enum members. The associated value of an enum member is assigned either implicitly or explicitly. If the declaration of the enum member has a constant_expression initializer, the value of that constant expression, implicitly converted to the underlying type of the enum, is the associated value of the enum member.
When to use upper case names for ENUM members?
Within an enumeration, the members can be compared by identity, and the enumeration itself can be iterated over. Because Enums are used to represent constants we recommend using UPPER_CASE names for enum members, and will be using that style in our examples.
How are enums different from normal Python classes?
Even though we use the class syntax to create Enums, Enums are not normal Python classes. See How are Enums different? for more details. Enumeration members have human readable string representations:
How are enum members named and scoped in C #?
Enum members are named and scoped in a manner exactly analogous to fields within classes. The scope of an enum member is the body of its containing enum type. Within that scope, enum members can be referred to by their simple name. From all other code, the name of an enum member must be qualified with the name of its enum type.
Can a system.enum be converted to an enum type?
A boxing conversion ( Boxing conversions) exists from any enum type to System.Enum, and an unboxing conversion ( Unboxing conversions) exists from System.Enum to any enum type. Note that System.Enum is not itself an enum_type.
