RE: What is enumerated data type? |
| An enumerated data type is a data type that groups together a set of values and orders them sequentially from 1 to n. You declare an enumerated type when you want a variable to hold only a limited number of distinct values. For example, you can define an enumerated type named colors whose legal values are "red" and "green" and "yellow". Examples type COLOR is enum red green // red = 1, green = 2 type YESNO is enum NO = 0 YES // NO = 0, YES = 1 |
