You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create an enumeration of constants with and without explicit values.
ACL2
ACL2 doesn't have built-in enumerated types, but these macros add some basic support:
<lang Lisp>(defun symbol-to-constant (sym)
(intern (concatenate 'string "*" (symbol-name sym) "*") "ACL2"))
(defmacro enum-with-vals (symbol value &rest args)
(if (endp args) `(defconst ,(symbol-to-constant symbol) ,value) `(progn (defconst ,(symbol-to-constant symbol) ,value) (enum-with-vals ,@args))))
(defun interleave-with-nats-r (xs i)
(if (endp xs) nil (cons (first xs) (cons i (interleave-with-nats-r (rest xs) (1+ i))))))
(defun interleave-with-nats (xs)
(interleave-with-nats-r xs 0))
(defmacro enum (&rest symbols)
`(enum-with-vals ,@(interleave-with-nats symbols)))</lang>
Ada
Ada enumeration types have three distinct attributes, the enumeration literal, the enumeration position, and the representation value. The position value (starting with 0) is implied from the order of specification of the enumeration literals in the type declaration; it provides the ordering for the enumeration values. In the example below, apple (position 0) is less than banana (position 1) which is less than cherry (position 3) due to their positions, not due to their enumeration literal. An enumeration representation, when given, must not violate the order. <lang ada>type Fruit is (apple, banana, cherry); -- No specification of the representation value; for Fruit use (apple => 1, banana => 2, cherry => 4); -- specification of the representation values</lang> Ada enumeration types are non-numeric discrete types. They can be used to index arrays, but there are no arithmetic operators for enumeration types; instead, there are predecessor and successor operations. Characters are implemented as an enumeration type in Ada.
ALGOL 68
Note: In this first example ALGOL 68's MODE does not create FRUITS as a distinct enumerated type. In particular FRUITS remain compatible with INT and so FRUITS inherit/share all INT's operators and procedures. <lang algol68>BEGIN # example 1 #
MODE FRUIT = INT; FRUIT apple = 1, banana = 2, cherry = 4; FRUIT x := cherry; CASE x IN print(("It is an apple #",x, new line)), print(("It is a banana #",x, new line)), SKIP, # 3 not defined # print(("It is a cherry #",x, new line)) OUT SKIP # other values # ESAC
END;</lang> Output:
It is a cherry # +4
In this second example ALGOL 68's tagged unions are used to generate the (private) values of the members of the enumerated type. However this new type comes with no operators, not even the "=" equality operator. Hence at least REPR (or ABS for INT type) must be defined if anything other then a case conditional clause is required. <lang algol68>BEGIN # example 2 #
MODE ENUM = [0]CHAR; # something with minimal size # MODE APPLE = STRUCT(ENUM apple), BANANA = STRUCT(ENUM banana), CHERRY = STRUCT(ENUM cherry); MODE FRUIT = UNION(APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY);
OP REPR = (FRUIT f)STRING: CASE f IN (APPLE):"Apple", (BANANA):"Banana", (CHERRY):"Cherry" OUT "?" # uninitalised # ESAC;
FRUIT x := LOC CHERRY;
CASE x IN (APPLE):print(("It is an ",REPR x, new line)), (BANANA):print(("It is a ",REPR x, new line)), (CHERRY):print(("It is a ",REPR x, new line)) OUT SKIP # uninitialised FRUIT # ESAC
END</lang> Output:
It is a Cherry
Warning: This second example is probably not how the conformity case clause construct was intended to be used.
See also: Standard Deviation for another example.
AmigaE
<lang amigae>ENUM APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY
PROC main()
DEF x ForAll({x}, [APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY], `WriteF('\d\n', x))
ENDPROC</lang>
writes 0, 1, 2 to the console.
AutoHotkey
AutoHotkey doesn't really enforce types.
However you can simulate types like enumeration with associative arrays:
<lang AutoHotkey>fruit_%apple% = 0
fruit_%banana% = 1
fruit_%cherry% = 2</lang>
AWK
In awk we can use an array, for mapping both ways, or initialize variables: <lang awk>fruit["apple"]=1; fruit["banana"]=2; fruit["cherry"]=3 fruit[1]="apple"; fruit[2]="banana"; fruit[3]="cherry" i=0; apple=++i; banana=++i; cherry=++i;</lang>
BASIC
<lang qbasic>REM Impossible. Can only be faked with arrays of strings. OPTION BASE 1 DIM SHARED fruitsName$(1 to 3) DIM SHARED fruitsVal%( 1 to 3) fruitsName$[1] = "apple" fruitsName$[2] = "banana" fruitsName$[3] = "cherry" fruitsVal%[1] = 1 fruitsVal%[2] = 2 fruitsVal%[3] = 3
REM OR GLOBAL CONSTANTS DIM SHARED apple%, banana%, cherry% apple% = 1 banana% = 2 cherry% = 3</lang>
Bracmat
Wikipedia says: 'An enumeration is a collection of items that is a complete, ordered listing of all of the items in that collection.' So the task is taken to be: 'Create a collection of constants that is a complete, ordered listing of all of the constants in that collection, with and without explicit values.' In Bracmat, each expression is a constant and can be used in situations where one would use an enum in other languages. All expressions have an ordering in sums and products. In the case of non-numeric strings the ordering is alphabetic. It is not possible in Bracmat to have a constant without an explicit value, because the constant is nothing but the value, so only half of the task can be solved. <lang bracmat>fruits=apple+banana+cherry;</lang>
C
<lang c>enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry };
enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };</lang>
However, if defined like the above, in C you must use the type as enum fruits
, not just fruits
. A common practice in C (same with struct
s) is to instead typedef the enum so you can refer to the type as a bare name:
<lang c>typedef enum { apple, banana, cherry } fruits;
typedef enum { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 } fruits;</lang>
C++
<lang cpp>enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry };
enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };</lang>
Note that, unlike in C, you can refer to the type here as fruits
.
C++11 introduced "strongly typed enumerations", enumerations that cannot be implicitly converted to/from integers: <lang cpp>enum class fruits { apple, banana, cherry };
enum class fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };</lang>
These enumeration constants must be referred to as fruits::apple
, not just apple
.
You can explicitly specify an underlying type for the enum; the default is int
:
<lang cpp>enum class fruits : unsigned int { apple, banana, cherry };</lang>
You can also explicitly specify an underlying type for old-style enums: <lang cpp>enum fruits : unsigned int { apple, banana, cherry };</lang>
C#
<lang csharp>enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry }
enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 }
enum fruits : int { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 }
[FlagsAttribute] enum Colors { Red = 1, Green = 2, Blue = 4, Yellow = 8 }</lang>
Placing FlagsAttribute before an enum allows you to perform bitwise operations on the value. Note: All enums have a value of 0 defined, even if not specified in the set values.
Clojure
In Clojure you will typically use keywords when you would use enums in other languages. Keywords are symbols that start with a colon and evaluate to themselves. For example: <lang clojure>; a set of keywords (def fruits #{:apple :banana :cherry})
- a predicate to test "fruit" membership
(defn fruit? [x] (contains? fruits x))
- if you need a value associated with each fruit
(def fruit-value (zipmap fruits (iterate inc 1)))
(println (fruit? :apple)) (println (fruit-value :banana))</lang>
Common Lisp
Values:
<lang lisp>;; symbol to number (defconstant +apple+ 0) (defconstant +banana+ 1) (defconstant +cherry+ 2)
- number to symbol
(defun index-fruit (i)
(aref #(+apple+ +banana+ +cherry+) i))</lang>
Of course, the two definitions above can be produced by a single macro, if desired.
Defining a type for documentation or checking purposes:
<lang lisp>(deftype fruit ()
'(member +apple+ +banana+ +cherry+))</lang>
D
<lang d>// Named (commonly used enum in D) (int). enum Fruits1 { apple, banana, cherry }
// Anonymous, as in C. enum { APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY }
// Named with specified values (int). enum Fruits2 { apple = 0, banana = 10, cherry = 20 }
// Named, typed and with specified values. enum Fruits3 : ubyte { apple = 0, banana = 100, cherry = 200 }
void main() {
static assert(CHERRY == 2); int f1 = Fruits2.banana; // No error. // Fruits2 f2 = 1; // Error: cannot implicitly convert.
}</lang>
Delphi
<lang Delphi>type
TFruit = (Apple, Banana, Cherry);
TApe = (Gorilla = 0, Chimpanzee = 1, Orangutan = 5);</lang>
DWScript
<lang Delphi>type TFruit = (Apple, Banana, Cherry); type TApe = (Gorilla = 0, Chimpanzee = 1, Orangutan = 5);</lang>
E
Simple group of object definitions (value methods could be left out if appropriate):
<lang e>def apple { to value() { return 0 } } def banana { to value() { return 1 } } def cherry { to value() { return 2 } }</lang> With a guard for type checks: <lang e>interface Fruit guards FruitStamp {} def apple implements FruitStamp {} def banana implements FruitStamp {} def cherry implements FruitStamp {}
def eat(fruit :Fruit) { ... }</lang> With and without values, using a hypothetical enumeration library: <lang e>def [Fruit, [=> apple, => banana, => cherry]] := makeEnumeration()
def [Fruit, [=> apple, => banana, => cherry]] :=
makeEnumeration(0, ["apple", "banana", "cherry"])</lang>
EGL
<lang EGL>// Without explicit values enumeration FruitsKind APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY end
program EnumerationTest
function main() whatFruitAmI(FruitsKind.CHERRY); end
function whatFruitAmI(fruit FruitsKind) case (fruit) when(FruitsKind.APPLE) syslib.writestdout("You're an apple."); when(FruitsKind.BANANA) syslib.writestdout("You're a banana."); when(FruitsKind.CHERRY) syslib.writestdout("You're a cherry."); otherwise syslib.writestdout("I'm not sure what you are."); end end
end</lang>
-and-
<lang EGL>// With explicit values library FruitsKind type BasicLibrary {} const APPLE int = 0; const BANANA int = 1; const CHERRY int = 2; end
program EnumerationTest
function main() whatFruitAmI(FruitsKind.CHERRY); end
function whatFruitAmI(fruit int in) case (fruit) when(FruitsKind.APPLE) syslib.writestdout("You're an apple."); when(FruitsKind.BANANA) syslib.writestdout("You're a banana."); when(FruitsKind.CHERRY) syslib.writestdout("You're a cherry."); otherwise syslib.writestdout("I'm not sure what you are."); end end
end </lang>
Erlang
For the unspecific value enum use case, Erlang has atoms. You can use apple, banana, orange directly in the code. If they have to have a specific value they could be grouped like this: {apple, 1}, {banana, 3}, {orange, 8}
Fantom
Enumerations with named constants:
<lang fantom> // create an enumeration with named constants enum class Fruits { apple, banana, orange } </lang>
A private constructor can be added to initialise internal fields, which must be constant.
<lang Fantom> // create an enumeration with explicit values enum class Fruits_ {
apple (1), banana (2), orange (3) const Int value private new make (Int value) { this.value = value }
} </lang>
Forth
Forth has no types, and therefore no enumeration type. To define sequential constants, a programmer might write code like this:
<lang forth>0 CONSTANT apple 1 CONSTANT banana 2 CONSTANT cherry ...</lang> However, a common idiom in forth is to define a defining word, such as: <lang forth>: ENUM ( n -<name>- n+1 ) DUP CONSTANT 1+ ;</lang> This word defines a new constant of the value specified and returns the next value in sequence. It would be used like this:
<lang forth>0 ENUM APPLE ENUM BANANA ENUM CHERRY DROP</lang>
Or you can use CONSTANT to capture the "end" value instead of dropping it:
<lang forth>0 ENUM FIRST ENUM SECOND ... CONSTANT LAST</lang>
A variation of this idea is the "stepped enumeration" that increases the value by more than 1, such as:
<lang forth>: SIZED-ENUM ( n s -<name>- n+s ) OVER CONSTANT + ;
- CELL-ENUM ( n -<name>- n+cell ) CELL SIZED-ENUM ;</lang>
A programmer could combine these enum definers in any way desired:
<lang forth>0 ENUM FIRST \ value = 0 CELL-ENUM SECOND \ value = 1 ENUM THIRD \ value = 5 3 SIZED-ENUM FOURTH \ value = 6 ENUM FIFTH \ value = 9 CONSTANT SIXTH \ value = 10</lang>
Note that a similar technique is often used to implement structures in Forth.
For a simple zero-based sequence of constants, one could use a loop in the defining word: <lang forth>: CONSTANTS ( n -- ) 0 DO I CONSTANT LOOP ;
\ resistor digit colors 10 CONSTANTS black brown red orange yellow green blue violet gray white</lang>
Fortran
<lang fortran>enum, bind(c)
enumerator :: one=1, two, three, four, five enumerator :: six, seven, nine=9
end enum</lang>
The syntax
<lang fortran>enum, bind(c) :: nametype
enumerator :: one=1, two, three
end enum nametype</lang>
does not work with gfortran; it is used in some Cray docs about Fortran, but the syntax shown at IBM is the one gfortran can understand. (Cray's docs refer to Fortran 2003 draft, IBM docs refers to Fortran 2003 standard, but read the brief Fortran 2003 Standard section to understand why differences may exist...)
F#
Enumerations in F# always have explicit values: <lang fsharp>type Fruit =
| Apple = 0 | Banana = 1 | Cherry = 2
let basket = [ Fruit.Apple ; Fruit.Banana ; Fruit.Cherry ] Seq.iter (printfn "%A") basket</lang>
If the initialization values are omitted, the resulting type is a discriminated union (algebraic data type) instead. Simple discriminated unions can be used similarly to enumerations, but they are never convertible from and to integers, and their internal representation is quite different.
<lang fsharp>type Fruit =
| Apple | Banana | Cherry
let basket = [ Apple ; Banana ; Cherry ] Seq.iter (printfn "%A") basket</lang>
Go
Go's enumeration-like feature is called iota. It generates sequential integer constants. <lang go>const ( apple = iota banana cherry )</lang> The above is equivalent to, <lang go>const ( apple = 0 banana = 1 cherry = 2 )</lang> Constants in Go are not typed they way variables are, they are typed when used just like literal constants. Here is an example of a type safe enumeration: <lang go>type fruit int
const ( apple fruit = iota banana cherry )</lang> And using explicit values (note each constant must be individual typed here unlike with iota): <lang go>type fruit int
const ( apple fruit = 0 banana fruit = 1 cherry fruit = 2 )</lang>
Groovy
Enumerations: <lang groovy>enum Fruit { apple, banana, cherry }
enum ValuedFruit {
apple(1), banana(2), cherry(3); def value ValuedFruit(val) {value = val} String toString() { super.toString() + "(${value})" }
}
println Fruit.values() println ValuedFruit.values()</lang>
Output:
[apple, banana, cherry] [apple(1), banana(2), cherry(3)]
Haskell
<lang haskell>data Fruit = Apple | Banana | Cherry deriving Enum</lang>
Inform 7
<lang inform7>Fruit is a kind of value. The fruits are apple, banana, and cherry.</lang>
Inform 7 doesn't have conversions between enumerated values and numbers, but you can assign properties to enumerated values: <lang inform7>[sentence form] Fruit is a kind of value. The fruits are apple, banana, and cherry. A fruit has a number called numeric value. The numeric value of apple is 1. The numeric value of banana is 2. The numeric value of cherry is 3.</lang> <lang inform7>[table form] Fruit is a kind of value. The fruits are defined by the Table of Fruits.
Table of Fruits fruit numeric value apple 1 banana 2 cherry 3</lang>
Icon and Unicon
Nether Icon nor Unicon has an explicit enumeration type; however, there are several approaches that can be used for this purpose:
<lang Icon> fruits := [ "apple", "banana", "cherry", "apple" ] # a list keeps ordered data
fruits := set("apple", "banana", "cherry") # a set keeps unique data fruits := table() # table keeps an unique data with values fruits["apple"] := 1 fruits["banana"] := 2 fruits["cherry"] := 3</lang>
J
J's typing system is fixed, and so extensions occur at the application level. For example, one could create an object <lang j> enum =: cocreate
( (;:'apple banana cherry') ,L:0 '__enum' ) =: i. 3 cherry__enum
2</lang>
But this is more akin to a "methodless class or object" than an enum in other languages.
That said, note that the "natural way", in J, of dealing with issues treated in other languages through enums is to use an array of names. <lang j> fruit=: ;:'apple banana cherry'</lang>
Now you can get the name associated with an index:
<lang j> 2 { fruit +------+ |cherry| +------+</lang>
And you can get the index associated with a name:
<lang j> fruit i.<'banana' 1</lang>
And you can define an arithmetic with the enum for its domain and range. Here, for example, is 2=1+1:
<lang j> (<'banana') +&.(fruit&i.) <'banana' +------+ |cherry| +------+</lang>
And, you can iterate over the values (though an example of that is probably beyond the scope of this task), along with numerous other variations on these themes.
A person could reasonably argue that enums were introduced in some languages to work around deficiencies in array handling in those languages.
Java
<lang java5>enum Fruits{
APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY
}</lang> Or: <lang java5>enum Fruits{
APPLE(0), BANANA(1), CHERRY(2) private final int value; fruits(int value) { this.value = value; } public int value() { return value; }
}</lang> Conventionally, enums have the same case rules as classes, while enum values are in all caps (like other constants). All cases are allowed for both names, though, as long as they don't conflict with other classes in the same package.
JavaScript
<lang javascript> var fruits = { APPLE : 0, BANANA : 1, CHERRY : 2 }; Object.freeze(fruits); </lang> Object.freeze() Prevents modification of the enumeration at run-time.
JSON
<lang json>{"fruits" : { "apple" : null, "banana" : null, "cherry" : null } {"fruits" : { "apple" : 0, "banana" : 1, "cherry" : 2 }</lang>
JScript.NET
<lang jscript>enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry } enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 }</lang>
Lua
An explicit enum can be formed by mapping strings to numbers
<lang lua> local fruit = {apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2} </lang>
or simply by local variables.
<lang lua> local apple, banana, cherry = 0,1,2 </lang>
Although since Lua strings are interned, there is as much benefit to simply using strings.
M4
<lang M4>define(`enums',
`define(`$2',$1)`'ifelse(eval($#>2),1,`enums(incr($1),shift(shift($@)))')')
define(`enum',
`enums(1,$@)')
enum(a,b,c,d) `c='c</lang>
Output:
c=3
Mathematica
Enumerations are not very useful in a symbolic language like Mathematica. If desired, an 'enum' function could be defined : <lang Mathematica>MapIndexed[Set, {A, B, F, G}] ->{{1}, {2}, {3}, {4}}
A ->{1}
B ->{2}
G ->{4}</lang>
MATLAB / Octave
Enumeration is done by creating a cell array (a.k.a set) of objects, where the numeral of the object is its index in the 1-based cell array. The cell array structure can contain any type of data structure including other cell arrays, and all members don't have to be the same data type.
Example: <lang MATLAB>stuff = {'apple', [1 2 3], 'cherry',1+2i}
stuff =
'apple' [1x3 double] 'cherry' [1.000000000000000 + 2.000000000000000i]</lang>
Metafont
Metafont has no an enumeration type. However we can define an useful macro to simulate an enumeration. E.g. <lang metafont>vardef enum(expr first)(text t) = save ?; ? := first; forsuffixes e := t: e := ?; ?:=?+1; endfor enddef;</lang>
Usage example:
<lang metafont>enum(1, Apple, Banana, Cherry); enum(5, Orange, Pineapple, Qfruit); show Apple, Banana, Cherry, Orange, Pineapple, Qfruit;
end</lang>
Modula-3
<lang modula3>TYPE Fruit = {Apple, Banana, Cherry};</lang>
The values are accessed by qualifying their names.
<lang modula3>fruit := Fruit.Apple;</lang>
You can get an element's position in the enumeration by using ORD
and get the element given the position by using VAL
.
<lang modula3>ORD(Fruit.Apple); (* Returns 0 *)
VAL(0, Fruit); (* Returns Fruit.Apple *)</lang>
Nemerle
<lang Nemerle>enum Fruit {
|apple |banana |cherry
}
enum Season {
|winter = 1 |spring = 2 |summer = 3 |autumn = 4
}</lang>
Nimrod
<lang nimrod>type Fruits = enum Apple, Banana, Cherry
type Fruits = enum Apple = 0, Banana = 1, Cherry = 2</lang>
Objeck
<lang objeck> enum Color := -3 {
Red, White, Blue
}
enum Dog {
Pug, Boxer, Terrier
} </lang>
Objective-C
With iOS 6+ SDK / Mac OS X 10.8+ SDK: <lang objc>typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, fruits) { apple, banana, cherry };
typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, fruits) { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };</lang>
OCaml
<lang ocaml>type fruit =
| Apple | Banana | Cherry</lang>
Oz
Most of the time you will just use atoms where you would use enums in C. Atoms start with a lower-case letter and are just symbols that evaluate to themselves. For example: <lang oz>declare
fun {IsFruit A} {Member A [apple banana cherry]} end
in
{Show {IsFruit banana}}</lang>
If you need constants with increasing values, you could just enumerate them manually: <lang oz>declare
Apple = 1 Banana = 2 Cherry = 3</lang>
Or you could write a procedure that does the job automatically: <lang oz>declare
proc {Enumeration Xs} Xs = {List.number 1 {Length Xs} 1} end
[Apple Banana Cherry] = {Enumeration}
in
{Show Cherry}</lang>
Pascal
See Delphi
Perl
<lang perl># Using an array my @fruits = qw(apple banana cherry);
- Using a hash
my %fruits = ( apple => 0, banana => 1, cherry => 2 );</lang>
Perl 6
<lang perl6>enum Fruit <Apple Banana Cherry>; # Numbered 0 through 2.
enum ClassicalElement (
Earth => 5, 'Air', # Gets the value 6. Fire => 'hot', Water => 'wet'
);</lang>
PHP
<lang php>// Using an array/hash $fruits = array( "apple", "banana", "cherry" ); $fruits = array( "apple" => 0, "banana" => 1, "cherry" => 2 );
// If you are inside a class scope class Fruit {
const APPLE = 0; const BANANA = 1; const CHERRY = 2;
}
// Then you can access them as such $value = Fruit::APPLE;
// Or, you can do it using define() define("FRUIT_APPLE", 0); define("FRUIT_BANANA", 1); define("FRUIT_CHERRY", 2);</lang>
PicoLisp
Enumerations are not very useful in a symbolic language like PicoLisp. If desired, an 'enum' function could be defined: <lang PicoLisp>(de enum "Args"
(mapc def "Args" (range 1 (length "Args"))) )</lang>
And used in this way: <lang PicoLisp>: (enum A B C D E F) -> F</lang>
: A -> 1 : B -> 2 : F -> 6
PL/I
<lang PL/I> define ordinal animal (frog, gnu, elephant, snake);
define ordinal color (red value (1), green value (3), blue value (5)); </lang>
PureBasic
Basic Enumeration is defined as <lang PureBasic>Enumeration
#Apple #Banana #Cherry
EndEnumeration</lang> This can also be adjusted to the form <lang PureBasic>Enumeration 10200 Step 12
#Constant1 ; 10200 #Constant2 ; 10212 #Constant3 ; 10224 #Constant4 = 10117 ; 10117 #Constant5 ; 10229
EndEnumeration</lang> The system constant "#PB_Compiler_EnumerationValue" holds last defined value and can be used to chain to a previously started series.
E.g. in combination with the code above; <lang PureBasic>Enumeration #PB_Compiler_EnumerationValue
#Constant_A ; 10241 #Constant_B ; 10242
EndEnumeration</lang>
Python
There is no special syntax, typically global variables are used with range: <lang python>FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME, PHONE = range(3)</lang> Alternately, the above variables can be enumerated from a list with no predetermined length. <lang python>vars().update((key,val) for val,key in enumerate(("FIRST_NAME","LAST_NAME","PHONE")))</lang>
R
R does not have an enumeration type, though factors provide a similar functionality. <lang R> factor(c("apple", "banana", "cherry"))
- [1] apple banana cherry
- Levels: apple banana cherry</lang>
This thread in the R mail archive contains code for an enum-like class for traffic light colours.
Racket
<lang Racket>
- lang racket
- Like other Lisps, Racketeers prefer using symbols directly instead of
- numeric definitions, and lists of symbols instead of bitwise
- combinations
(define fruits '(apple banana cherry))
- In Typed Racket, a type can be defined for a specific set of symbols
- (define-type Fruit (U 'apple 'banana 'cherry))
- The conventional approach is possible too, of course
(define APPLE 1) (define BANANA 2) (define CHERRY 4)
- And finally, when dealing with foreign functions it is useful to
- translate idiomatic Racket values (= symbols) to/from integers.
- Racket's ffi has two ways to do this -- either an enumeration (for
- independent integer constants) or a bitmask (intended to represent
- sets using bitwise or)
(require ffi/unsafe) (define _fruit (_enum '(APPLE = 1
BANANA CHERRY = 4)))
(define _fruits (_bitmask '(APPLE = 1
BANANA = 2 CHERRY = 4)))
- Normally, Racket code will just use plain values (a symbol for the
- first, and a list of symbols for the second) and the foreign side
- sees the integers. But do demonstrate this, we can use the primitive
- raw functionality to see how the translation works
(require (only-in '#%foreign ctype-scheme->c ctype-c->scheme))
((ctype-scheme->c _fruit) 'CHERRY) ; -> 4 ((ctype-scheme->c _fruits) 'CHERRY) ; -> 4 ((ctype-scheme->c _fruits) '(APPLE CHERRY)) ; -> 5
((ctype-c->scheme _fruit) 4) ; -> 'CHERRY ((ctype-c->scheme _fruits) 4) ; -> '(CHERRY) ((ctype-c->scheme _fruits) 5) ; -> '(APPLE CHERRY) </lang>
Raven
<lang raven>{ 'apple' 0 'banana' 1 'cherry' 2 } as fruits</lang>
Retro
Retro has a library named enum' for creation of enumerated values.
<lang Retro>needs enum' ( Creating a series of values ) 0 ^enum'enum| a b c d |
( Create values individually ) 0 ^enum'enum a ^enum'enum b</lang>
The actual values for each subsequent enumerated value created are determined by the ^enum'step function. This defaults to incrementing by 1, but can be altered as desired:
<lang Retro>with enum' [ 10 * ] is step 0 ^enum'enum| a b c d |</lang>
REXX
REXX has no types, and therefore has no enumeration type.
However, in the spirit of enumeration, REXX programmers can use stemmed arrays for enumerating constants (shown below).
This REXX entry was kinda modeled after the BASIC, Forth, and
VBA [which does its own enumeration, as does REXX below (as an inventory count)].
<lang rexx>/*REXX program to illustrate enumeration of constants via stemmed arrays*/
fruit.=0 /*the default for all "FRUITS." */
fruit.apple = 65
fruit.cherry = 4
fruit.kiwi = 12
fruit.peach = 48
fruit.plum = 50
fruit.raspberry = 17

Ruby
There are plenty of ways to represent enum in Ruby. Here it is just one example: <lang ruby>module Fruits
APPLE = 0 BANANA = 1 CHERRY = 2
end
- It is possible to use a symbol if the value is unrelated.
FRUITS = [:apple, :banana, :cherry] val = :banana FRUITS.include?(val) #=> true</lang> To give a number in turn, there is the following method. <lang ruby>module Card
# constants SUITS = %w(Clubs Hearts Spades Diamonds) SUIT_VALUE = Hash[ SUITS.each_with_index.to_a ] #=> {"Clubs"=>0, "Hearts"=>1, "Spades"=>2, "Diamonds"=>3} PIPS = %w(2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jack Queen King Ace) PIP_VALUE = Hash[ PIPS.each.with_index(2).to_a ] #=> {"2"=>2, "3"=>3, "4"=>4, "5"=>5, "6"=>6, "7"=>7, "8"=>8, "9"=>9, "10"=>10, "Jack"=>11, "Queen"=>12, "King"=>13, "Ace"=>14}
end</lang>
Rust
<lang rust>enum Fruits {
Apple, Banana, Cherry
}</lang>
Scala
1. Using Algebraic Data Types: <lang actionscript>sealed abstract class Fruit case object Apple extends Fruit case object Banana extends Fruit case object Cherry extends Fruit </lang> 2. Using scala.Enumeration: <lang actionscript>object Fruit extends Enumeration {
val Apple, Banana, Cherry = Value
} </lang>
Scheme
<lang scheme>(define apple 0) (define banana 1) (define cherry 2)
(define (fruit? atom)
(or (equal? 'apple atom) (equal? 'banana atom) (equal? 'cherry atom)))</lang>
(This section needs attention from someone familiar with Scheme idioms.)
Seed7
<lang seed7>const type: fruits is new enum
apple, banana, cherry end enum;</lang>
Slate
As just unique objects: <lang slate>define: #Fruit &parents: {Cloneable}. Fruit traits define: #Apple -> Fruit clone. Fruit traits define: #Banana -> Fruit clone. Fruit traits define: #Cherry -> Fruit clone.</lang>
As labels for primitive values: <lang slate>define: #Apple -> 1. define: #Banana -> 2. define: #Cherry -> 3.</lang>
As a namespace: <lang slate>ensureNamespace: #fruit &slots: {#Apple -> 1. #Banana -> 2. #Cherry -> 3}.</lang>
Using a dictionary: <lang slate>define: #fruit &builder: [{#Apple -> 1. #Banana -> 2. #Cherry -> 3} as: Dictionary].</lang>
Standard ML
<lang sml>datatype fruit =
Apple
| Banana | Cherry</lang>
Swift
<lang swift>enum Fruit {
case Apple case Banana case Cherry
} // or enum Fruit {
case Apple, Banana, Cherry
}
enum Season : Int {
case Winter = 1 case Spring = 2 case Summer = 3 case Autumn = 4
}</lang>
Tcl
It is normal in Tcl to use strings from a set directly rather than treating them as an enumeration, but enumerations can be simulated easily. The following elegant example comes straight from the [Tcl wiki:]
<lang tcl>proc enumerate {name values} {
interp alias {} $name: {} lsearch $values interp alias {} $name@ {} lindex $values
}</lang>
it would be used like this:
<lang tcl>enumerate fruit {apple blueberry cherry date elderberry}
fruit: date
- ==> prints "3"
fruit@ 2
- ==> prints "cherry"</lang>
Toka
Toka has no data types, and therefore no actual enumeration type. There is an optional library function which does provide a way to create enumerated values easily though.
This library function takes a starting value and a list of names as shown in the example below.
<lang toka>needs enum 0 enum| apple banana carrot | 10 enum| foo bar baz |</lang>
VBA
Like Visual Basic .NET, actually: <lang vb> 'this enumerates from 0 Enum fruits
apple banana cherry
End Enum
'here we use our own enumeration Enum fruits2
pear = 5 mango = 10 kiwi = 20 pineapple = 20
End Enum
Sub test()
Dim f As fruits
f = apple Debug.Print "apple equals "; f Debug.Print "kiwi equals "; kiwi Debug.Print "cherry plus kiwi plus pineapple equals "; cherry + kiwi + pineapple
End Sub </lang> Output:
test apple equals 0 kiwi equals 20 cherry plus kiwi plus pineapple equals 42
Visual Basic .NET
<lang vbnet>' Is this valid?! Enum fruits apple banana cherry End Enum
' This is correct Enum fruits apple = 0 banana = 1 cherry = 2 End Enum</lang>
XPL0
<lang XPL0>def \Fruit\ Apple, Banana, Cherry; \Apple=0, Banana=1, Cherry=2 def Apple=1, Banana=2, Cherry=4; </lang>
