With Explicit Values

You can use labels to "name" any numeric value, whether it represents a constant or a memory location is up to the programmer. Code labels are automatically assigned a value based on what memory location they are assembled to.

Keep in mind that these names do not exist at runtime and are just for the programmer's convenience. None of this "code" below actually takes up any space in the assembled program.

Sunday equ 0
Monday equ 1
Tuesday equ 2
Wednesday equ 3
Thursday equ 4
Friday equ 5
Saturday equ 6

Some assemblers have an actual ENUM directive, where only the 0th element needs a defined value and the rest follow sequentially. This is often used for allocating RAM locations rather than a C-style enumeration, however. .DSB is a directive that stands for "data storage byte" and is listed after the label so that the assembler knows how big the variable is. In the example below the variable OBJECT_XPOS begins at $0400 and OBJECT_XPOS begins at $0410:

enum $0400
OBJECT_XPOS .dsb 16  ;define 16 bytes for object X position
OBJECT_YPOS .dsb 16  ;define 16 bytes for object Y position

A lookup table is the most common method of enumeration of actual data in assembly. Each element of the table can be accessed by an index, and the starting index is zero. (The index may need to be adjusted for data sizes larger than 1 byte, i.e. doubled for 16-bit data and quadrupled for 32-bit data.) Unlike the above example, these values do indeed take up memory. Using this method when the above enumeration would suffice is incredibly wasteful.

Days_Of_The_Week:
    word Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday

Sunday:
    byte "Sunday",0
Monday:
    byte "Monday",0
Tuesday:
    byte "Tuesday",0
Wednesday:
    byte "Wednesday",0
Thursday:
    byte "Thursday",0
Friday:
    byte "Friday",0
Saturday:
    byte "Saturday",0


LDA #$03 ;we want to load Wednesday
ASL A    ;these are 16-bit pointers to strings, so double A
TAX      ;transfer A to X so that we can use this index as a lookup

LDA Days_Of_The_Week,x    ;get low byte
STA $00                   ;store in zero page memory
LDA Days_Of_The_Week+1,x  ;get high byte
STA $01                   ;store in zero page memory directly after low byte
LDY #0                    ;clear Y

LDA ($00),Y               ;Load the "W" of Wednesday into accumulator

With Explicit Values

You can use labels to "name" any numeric value, whether it represents a constant or a memory location is up to the programmer. Code labels are automatically assigned a value based on what memory location they are assembled to. The syntax for labels depends on your assembler; the example below uses VASM syntax and Motorola mnemonics.

Keep in mind that these names do not exist at runtime and are just for the programmer's convenience. None of this "code" below actually takes up any space in the assembled program.

A lookup table is the most common method of enumeration of actual data in assembly. Each element of the table can be accessed by an index, and the starting index is zero. (The index may need to be adjusted for data sizes larger than 1 byte, i.e. doubled for 16-bit data and quadrupled for 32-bit data.) Unlike the above example, these values do indeed take up memory. Using this method when the above enumeration would suffice is incredibly wasteful.

Like in a C-style enumeration, Sunday would be 0, Monday 1, Tuesday 2, and so on. (Actually, Monday would be 4 and Tuesday would be 8 and so on, since these are 32-bit pointers.) It's a common practice to have the index live in RAM as a one-byte index, load it in a register, and then scale its register copy during the lookup process only. That way if multiple tables with different data sizes have a common index, the program doesn't need to remember which data type the index was last used to access.

Days_Of_The_Week:
    DC.L Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday

Sunday:
    DC.B "Sunday",0
    EVEN ;conditionally aligns to a 2-byte boundary if the data isn't aligned already
Monday:
    DC.B "Monday",0
    EVEN
Tuesday:
    DC.B "Tuesday",0
    EVEN
Wednesday:
    DC.B "Wednesday",0
    EVEN
Thursday:
    DC.B "Thursday",0
    EVEN
Friday:
    DC.B "Friday",0
    EVEN
Saturday:
    DC.B "Saturday",0
    EVEN

;In this example, load Thursday.

    LEA Days_Of_The_Week,A0   ;load base address of table into A0
    MOVE.W #4,D0              ;Thursday's index
    LSL.W #2,D0               ;multiply by 4 since each pointer is 32-bit
    LEA (A0,D0),A1            ;load table offset by D0 into A1
    MOVE.L (A1),A1            ;dereference the pointer, now the address of "Thursday" is in A1.
    MOVE.B (A1)+,D1           ;Load the "T" of Thursday into D1, auto-increment to next letter for the next load.

With Explicit Values

Most assemblers allow the use of an equ directive or something similar, where you can assign a label to a number for later use. These do not take up space in your program.

Sunday equ 0
Monday equ 1
Tuesday equ 2
Wednesday equ 3
Thursday equ 4
Friday equ 5
Saturday equ 6
Sunday equ 7

Without Explicit Values

A lookup table is often used to translate data according to a common index. The XLAT instruction can help us with this task, however that instruction only works with 8-bit data, which is not always what we're after. In this example, we're using numbers 0 through 7 to look up a table of pointers to strings. When declaring a table like this, these DO take up space in your program.

mov ax,seg DaysOfTheWeek
mov ds,ax
mov si,offset DaysOfTheWeek

mov bx,2       ;desired enumeration of 2 = Tuesday
add bx,bx      ;double bx since this is a table of words
mov ax,[bx+si] ;load the address of the string "Tuesday" into ax
mov si,ax      ;we can't load indirectly from AX, so move it into SI. We don't need the old value of SI anymore
mov al,[si]    ;load the byte at [SI] (in this case, the "T" in Tuesday.)
ret

DaysOfTheWeek word Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday  
;each is a pointer to a string containing the text you would expect.


ACL2

ACL2 doesn't have built-in enumerated types, but these macros add some basic support:

(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)))

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.

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

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

Translation of: C
Works with: ALGOL 68 version Standard - no extensions to language used
Works with: ALGOL 68G version Any - tested with release mk15-0.8b.fc9.i386
Works with: ELLA ALGOL 68 version Any (with appropriate job cards) - tested with release 1.8.8d.fc9.i386

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.

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;
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.

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
Output:
It is a Cherry

Warning: This second example is probably not how the conformity case clause construct was intended to be used.

ATS

The wording of the task seems centered on C, where an enum is a notation for type int, but it is true that the following type will be translated by the ATS compiler to C integers:

datatype my_enum =
| value_a
| value_b
| value_c

Within ATS itself, my_enum is a special case of recursive type definition. Similar facilities are available in ML dialects and other languages.

To "enumerate" with explicit integer values, I would simply define some constants, probably with #define (so I could use them in static expressions, etc.):

#define value_a 1
#define value_b 2
#define value_c 3

You could still restrict things so no other values were possible:

typedef my_enum = [i : int | value_a <= i; i <= value_c] int i

The value of a my_enum would be enforced at compile time.

AutoHotkey

AutoHotkey doesn't really enforce types.
However you can simulate types like enumeration with associative arrays:

fruit_%apple% = 0
fruit_%banana% = 1
fruit_%cherry% = 2

AWK

In awk we can use an array, for mapping both ways, or initialize variables:

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;

BASIC

fruitsVal%[3] = 3

REM OR GLOBAL CONSTANTS

BaCon

BaCon includes an ENUM statement, with or without fixed values. If no value is given, enumerations start at zero and increase by integer 1.

' Enumerations

ENUM
    cat, dog, parrot
END ENUM
PRINT "Dogs are #", dog

' Set value
ENUM
    Sunday=1, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday
END ENUM
PRINT Sunday, " ", Wednesday, " ", Saturday

' Change values, ENUM names must be unique
ENUM
    sunday=7, monday=1, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday
END ENUM
PRINT sunday, " ", wednesday, " ", saturday
Output:

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.

fruits=apple+banana+cherry;

C

enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry };

enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };

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 structs) is to instead typedef the enum so you can refer to the type as a bare name:

typedef enum { apple, banana, cherry } fruits;

typedef enum { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 } fruits;

C#

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 }

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.

C++

enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry };

enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };

Note that, unlike in C, you can refer to the type here as fruits.


Works with: C++11

C++11 introduced "strongly typed enumerations", enumerations that cannot be implicitly converted to/from integers:

enum class fruits { apple, banana, cherry };

enum class fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 };

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:

enum class fruits : unsigned int { apple, banana, cherry };

You can also explicitly specify an underlying type for old-style enums:

enum fruits : unsigned int { apple, banana, cherry };

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:

; 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))

Common Lisp

Values:

;; symbol to number
(defconstant +apple+ 0)
(defconstant +banana+ 1)
(defconstant +cherry+ 2)

;; number to symbol
(defun index-fruit (i)
  (aref #(+apple+ +banana+ +cherry+) i))

Of course, the two definitions above can be produced by a single macro, if desired.

Defining a type for documentation or checking purposes:

(deftype fruit ()
  '(member +apple+ +banana+ +cherry+))

Computer/zero Assembly

Constants can be defined by simply storing their binary representation into memory. You've only got 32 bytes of RAM so don't waste them. This is the only way to use numeric values, as all instructions on the CPU take memory addresses as operands, not constants.

LDA 4 ;load from memory address 4
STP
NOP
NOP
byte 1

The NOP and STP instructions ignore their operands, which means you can store arbitrary data inside those instructions that you can load from. This can save a little bit of memory.

D

void main() {
    // Named enumeration (commonly used enum in D).
    // The underlying type is a 32 bit int.
    enum Fruits1 { apple, banana, cherry }

    // You can assign an enum to the general type, but not the opposite:
    int f1 = Fruits1.banana; // No error.
    // Fruits1 f2 = 1; // Error: cannot implicitly convert.

    // Anonymous enumeration, as in C, of type 32 bit int.
    enum { APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY }
    static assert(CHERRY == 2);

    // Named enumeration with specified values (int).
    enum Fruits2 { apple = 0, banana = 10, cherry = 20 }

    // Named enumeration, typed and with specified values.
    enum Fruits3 : ubyte { apple = 0, banana = 100, cherry = 200 }

    // Named enumeration, typed and with partially specified values.
    enum Test : ubyte { A = 2, B, C = 3 }
    static assert(Test.B == 3); // Uses the next ubyte, duplicated value.

    // This raises a compile-time error for overflow.
    // enum Fruits5 : ubyte { apple = 254, banana = 255, cherry }

    enum Component {
        none,
        red   = 2 ^^ 0,
        green = 2 ^^ 1,
        blue  = 2 ^^ 2
    }

    // Phobos BitFlags support all the most common operations on flags.
    // Some of the operations are shown below.
    import std.typecons: BitFlags;

    alias ComponentFlags = BitFlags!Component;
    immutable ComponentFlags flagsEmpty;

    // Value can be set with the | operator.
    immutable flagsRed = flagsEmpty | Component.red;

    immutable flagsGreen = ComponentFlags(Component.green);
    immutable flagsRedGreen = ComponentFlags(Component.red, Component.green);
    immutable flagsBlueGreen = ComponentFlags(Component.blue, Component.green);

    // Use the & operator between BitFlags for intersection.
    assert (flagsGreen == (flagsRedGreen & flagsBlueGreen));
}

Delphi

In addition to standard Pascal, one may explicitly specify an index:

type
	fruit = (apple, banana, cherry);
	ape = (gorilla = 0, chimpanzee = 1, orangutan = 5);

Note, explicit indices have to be in ascending order. You can also just specify explicit indices for some items.

Diego

Enumerations can have extra information appended such as static (static variable name); colour (human friendly colour name); color (robot friendly colour name); and desc (description used for robots to communicate with humans).

With explicit values:

add_enum(⟪{int}⟫,⟦{str}⟧,urgency)
    ()_enum(⟪4⟫,⟦emergent⟧)_static(URGENCY_EMERGENT)_colour(red)_color({hex},#ca0031)_desc(The most urgent (critical) state, severe risk.);
    ()_enum(⟪3⟫,⟦exigent⟧)_static(URGENT_EXIGENT)_colour(orange)_color({hex},#ff6400)_desc(The high urgent state, high risk.);
    ()_enum(⟪2⟫,⟦urgent⟧)_static(URGENT_URGENT)_colour(yellow)_color({hex},#fce001)_desc(The elevated urgent state, elevated risk.);
    ()_enum(⟪1⟫,⟦infergent⟧)_static(URGENT_INFERGENT)_colour(blue)_color({hex},#3566cd)_desc(The low urgent state, low / guarded risk.);
    ()_enum(⟪0⟫,⟦nonurgent⟧)_static(URGENT_NON)_colour(green)_color({hex},#009a66)_desc(The non-urgent state, negligible risk.);
;

Without explicit values (and dynamic typing):

add_enum(fruits,⟦apple,banana,cherry⟧);

Flag enumerations (multi-selectable enumerations) can be created using enum, however, there is an primitive flag object available. This is similar to [Flags] and <Flags> _ flag attributes in C# and VB.Net respectively.

add_flag(ape,⟦gorilla,chimpanzee,orangutan⟧);
log_console()_(ape);

Output:

⟪1⟫,⟦gorilla⟧,⟪2⟫,⟦chimpanzee⟧,⟪4⟫,⟦orangutan⟧

DWScript

type TFruit = (Apple, Banana, Cherry);
type TApe = (Gorilla = 0, Chimpanzee = 1, Orangutan = 5);

E

Simple group of object definitions (value methods could be left out if appropriate):

def apple  { to value() { return 0 } }
def banana { to value() { return 1 } }
def cherry { to value() { return 2 } }

With a guard for type checks:

interface Fruit guards FruitStamp {}
def apple  implements FruitStamp {}
def banana implements FruitStamp {}
def cherry implements FruitStamp {}

def eat(fruit :Fruit) { ... }

Elixir

It is possible to use a atom if the value is unrelated.

fruits = [:apple, :banana, :cherry]
fruits = ~w(apple banana cherry)a                   # Above-mentioned different notation
val = :banana
Enum.member?(fruits, val)                           #=> true
val in fruits                                       #=> true

If they have to have a specific value

fruits = [{:apple, 1}, {:banana, 2}, {:cherry, 3}]  # Keyword list
fruits = [apple: 1, banana: 2, cherry: 3]           # Above-mentioned different notation
fruits[:apple]                                      #=> 1
Keyword.has_key?(fruits, :banana)                   #=> true

fruits = %{:apple=>1, :banana=>2, :cherry=>3}       # Map
fruits = %{apple: 1, banana: 2, cherry: 3}          # Above-mentioned different notation
fruits[:apple]                                      #=> 1
fruits.apple                                        #=> 1 (Only When the key is Atom)
Map.has_key?(fruits, :banana)                       #=> true

To give a number in turn, there is the following method.

# Keyword list
fruits = ~w(apple banana cherry)a |> Enum.with_index
#=> [apple: 0, banana: 1, cherry: 2]

# Map
fruits = ~w(apple banana cherry)a |> Enum.with_index |> Map.new
#=> %{apple: 0, banana: 1, cherry: 2}

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}

F#

Enumerations in F# always have explicit values:

type Fruit = 
  | Apple = 0
  | Banana = 1
  | Cherry = 2

let basket = [ Fruit.Apple ; Fruit.Banana ; Fruit.Cherry ]
Seq.iter (printfn "%A") basket

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.

type Fruit = 
  | Apple
  | Banana
  | Cherry
let basket = [ Apple ; Banana ; Cherry ]
Seq.iter (printfn "%A") basket

Factor

Enumerations are essentially association lists with values (keys) assigned sequentially from constants (values) provided by an initial sequence.

IN: scratchpad { "sun" "mon" "tue" "wed" "thur" "fri" "sat" } <enum>

--- Data stack:
T{ enum f ~array~ }
IN: scratchpad [ 1 swap at ] [ keys ] bi

--- Data stack:
"mon"
{ 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 }

Factor also provides C-like enumerations in its C library interface. These enumerations may have explicit values.

IN: scratchpad USE: alien.syntax
IN: scratchpad ENUM: day sun mon { tue 42 } wed thur fri sat ;
IN: scratchpad 1 <day>

--- Data stack:
mon
IN: scratchpad 42 <day>

--- Data stack:
mon
tue

Fantom

Enumerations with named constants:

// create an enumeration with named constants
enum class Fruits { apple, banana, orange }

A private constructor can be added to initialise internal fields, which must be constant.

// 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 }
}

Forth

Forth has no types, and therefore no enumeration type. To define sequential constants, a programmer might write code like this:

0 CONSTANT apple
1 CONSTANT banana
2 CONSTANT cherry
...

However, a common idiom in forth is to define a defining word, such as:

: ENUM ( n -<name>- n+1 )   DUP CONSTANT 1+ ;

This word defines a new constant of the value specified and returns the next value in sequence. It would be used like this:

0 ENUM APPLE  ENUM BANANA  ENUM CHERRY  DROP

Or you can use CONSTANT to capture the "end" value instead of dropping it:

0 ENUM FIRST ENUM SECOND ...  CONSTANT LAST

A variation of this idea is the "stepped enumeration" that increases the value by more than 1, such as:

: SIZED-ENUM ( n s -<name>- n+s )   OVER CONSTANT + ;
: CELL-ENUM ( n -<name>- n+cell )   CELL SIZED-ENUM ;

A programmer could combine these enum definers in any way desired:

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

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:

: CONSTANTS ( n -- ) 0 DO I CONSTANT LOOP ;

Fortran

Works with: Fortran version 2003
enum, bind(c)
  enumerator :: one=1, two, three, four, five
  enumerator :: six, seven, nine=9
end enum

The syntax

enum, bind(c) :: nametype
  enumerator :: one=1, two, three
end enum nametype

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...)

Free Pascal

See Delphi. Note, depending on the {$scopedEnum} compiler switch (as of definition time), enumeration type members are identified via the type name prepended.

Additionally, enumeration types can be passed to write/writeLn producing the Pascal (source code) identifier.

Go

Go's enumeration-like feature is called iota. It generates sequential integer constants.

const (
	apple = iota
	banana
	cherry
)

The above is equivalent to,

const (
	apple  = 0
	banana = 1
	cherry = 2
)

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:

type fruit int

const (
	apple fruit = iota
	banana
	cherry
)

And using explicit values (note each constant must be individual typed here unlike with iota):

type fruit int

const (
	apple  fruit = 0
	banana fruit = 1
	cherry fruit = 2
)

Groovy

Enumerations:

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()
Output:
[apple, banana, cherry]
[apple(1), banana(2), cherry(3)]

Haskell

data Fruit = Apple | Banana | Cherry deriving Enum

Huginn

enum FRUIT {
  APPLE,
  BANANA,
  CHERRY
}

Icon and Unicon

Nether Icon nor Unicon has an explicit enumeration type; however, there are several approaches that can be used for this purpose:

  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

Inform 7

Fruit is a kind of value. The fruits are apple, banana, and cherry.

Inform 7 doesn't have conversions between enumerated values and numbers, but you can assign properties to enumerated values:

[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.
[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

J

J's typing system is fixed, and so extensions occur at the application level. For example, one could create an object

   enum =: cocreate''
   ( (;:'apple banana cherry') ,L:0 '__enum' ) =: i. 3
   cherry__enum
2

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.

   fruit=: ;:'apple banana cherry'

Now you can get the name associated with an index:

   2 { fruit
+------+
|cherry|
+------+

And you can get the index associated with a name:

  fruit i.<'banana'
1

And you can define an arithmetic with the enum for its domain and range. Here, for example, is 2=1+1:

   (<'banana') +&.(fruit&i.)  <'banana'
+------+
|cherry|
+------+
And, you can iterate over the values, along with numerous other variations on these themes.
   {{for_example. fruit do. echo;example end.}} ''
apple
banana
cherry

(A person could reasonably argue that enums were introduced in some languages to work around deficiencies in array handling in those languages. But this would be a part of a larger discussion about type systems and the use of systems of bit patterns to represent information.)

Java

Works with: Java version 1.5+
enum Fruits{
   APPLE, BANANA, CHERRY
}

Or:

enum Fruits{
  APPLE(0), BANANA(1), CHERRY(2)
  private final int value;
  fruits(int value) { this.value = value; }
  public int value() { return value; }
}

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

In javascript, usually used for this a strings.

// enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry }

var f = "apple";

if(f == "apple"){
    f = "banana";
}

jq

Finite, ordered enumerations can be represented in jq as JSON arrays, e.g. ["apple", "banana", "cherry"], or as sequences, e.g. ("apple", "banana", "cherry"). The latter interpretation corresponds to the idea of enumerating a collection, and also dovetails with the concept of infinite enumerations.

Countably-infinite ordered enumerations can be represented by generators, e.g. the non-negative natural numbers can be represented by the jq expression:

    1 | while(true; .+1)

Finite, unordered enumerations can be represented as JSON objects, as in the JSON section of this article. In this context, it is worth noting that jq allows a shorthand notation for specifying objects, so that we can for example write:

   def fruits: {apple, banana, cherry};  # i.e. {"apple" : null, "banana": null, "cherry": null }

JScript.NET

enum fruits { apple, banana, cherry }
enum fruits { apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2 }

JSON

{"fruits" : { "apple" : null, "banana" : null, "cherry" : null }
{"fruits" : { "apple" : 0, "banana" : 1, "cherry" : 2 }

Julia

@enum Fruits APPLE BANANA CHERRY
Output:
julia> Fruits
Enum Fruits:
APPLE = 0
BANANA = 1
CHERRY = 2

Kotlin

// version 1.0.5-2

enum class Animals {
    CAT, DOG, ZEBRA
}

enum class Dogs(val id: Int) {
    BULLDOG(1), TERRIER(2), WOLFHOUND(4)
}

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    for (value in Animals.values()) println("${value.name.padEnd(5)} : ${value.ordinal}")
    println()
    for (value in Dogs.values()) println("${value.name.padEnd(9)} : ${value.id}")
}
Output:
CAT   : 0
DOG   : 1
ZEBRA : 2

BULLDOG   : 1
TERRIER   : 2
WOLFHOUND : 4

Lingo

Lingo neither knows the concept of enumerations nor of constants. But an enumeration-like hash (property list) that is immutable concerning standard list methods and operators can be created by sub-classing a property list and overwriting list/property list access methods (which also overwrites bracket access operators on the fly):

-- parent script "Enumeration"

property ancestor

on new (me)
  data = [:]
  repeat with i = 2 to the paramCount
    data[param(i)] = i-1
  end repeat
  me.ancestor = data
  return me
end

on setAt (me)
  -- do nothing
end

on setProp (me)
  -- do nothing
end

on deleteAt (me)
  -- do nothing
end

on deleteProp (me)
  -- do nothing
end

on addProp (me)
  -- do nothing
end
enumeration = script("Enumeration").new("APPLE", "BANANA", "CHERRY")

put enumeration["BANANA"]
-- 2

-- try to change a value after construction (fails)
enumeration["BANANA"] = 666
put enumeration["BANANA"]
-- 2

-- try to change a value after construction using setProp (fails)
enumeration.setProp("BANANA", 666)
put enumeration["BANANA"]
-- 2

-- try to delete a value after construction (fails)
enumeration.deleteAt(2)
put enumeration["BANANA"]
-- 2

-- try to delete a value after construction using deleteProp (fails)
enumeration.deleteProp("BANANA")
put enumeration["BANANA"]
-- 2

-- try to add a new value after construction (fails)
enumeration["FOO"] = 666
put enumeration["FOO"]
-- <Void>
  
-- try to add a new value after construction using addProp (fails)
enumeration.addProp("FOO", 666)
put enumeration["FOO"]
-- <Void>

Lua

An explicit enum can be formed by mapping strings to numbers

local fruit = {apple = 0, banana = 1, cherry = 2}

or simply by local variables.

local apple, banana, cherry = 0,1,2

Although since Lua strings are interned, there is as much benefit to simply using strings.

Mathematica/Wolfram Language

Enumerations are not very useful in a symbolic language like Mathematica. If desired, an 'enum' function could be defined :

MapIndexed[Set, {A, B, F, G}]
->{{1}, {2}, {3}, {4}}

A
->{1}

B
->{2}

G
->{4}

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:

stuff = {'apple', [1 2 3], 'cherry',1+2i}

stuff = 

    'apple'    [1x3 double]    'cherry'    [1.000000000000000 + 2.000000000000000i]

Metafont

Metafont has no an enumeration type. However we can define an useful macro to simulate an enumeration. E.g.

vardef enum(expr first)(text t) =
save ?; ? := first;
forsuffixes e := t: e := ?; ?:=?+1; endfor
enddef;

Usage example:

enum(1, Apple, Banana, Cherry);
enum(5, Orange, Pineapple, Qfruit);
show Apple, Banana, Cherry, Orange, Pineapple, Qfruit;

end

Modula-3

TYPE Fruit = {Apple, Banana, Cherry};

The values are accessed by qualifying their names.

fruit := Fruit.Apple;

You can get an element's position in the enumeration by using ORD and get the element given the position by using VAL.

ORD(Fruit.Apple); (* Returns 0 *)
VAL(0, Fruit); (* Returns Fruit.Apple *)

Oforth

In Oforth, you use symbols to define enumerations.Symbols are strings that are identical : if two symbols are equal (==), they are the same object.

You can't define explicit values for these symbols as they a themseelves values.

Symbols begin with $. If the symbol does not exists yet, it is created.

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:

declare
  fun {IsFruit A}
     {Member A [apple banana cherry]}
  end
in
  {Show {IsFruit banana}}

If you need constants with increasing values, you could just enumerate them manually:

declare
  Apple = 1
  Banana = 2
  Cherry = 3

Or you could write a procedure that does the job automatically:

declare
  proc {Enumeration Xs}
     Xs = {List.number 1 {Length Xs} 1}
  end

  [Apple Banana Cherry] = {Enumeration}
in
  {Show Cherry}

Pascal

Standard Pascal as per ISO 7185 only allows contiguous lists of identifiers as enumerated type definitions. An explicit index may not be specified, but Delphi and Free Pascal allow this. However, it is guaranteed, that the ordinal value will correspond to the member’s position in the list (0-based).

type
	phase = (red, green, blue);

Perl

# Using an array
my @fruits = qw(apple banana cherry);

# Using a hash
my %fruits = ( apple => 0, banana => 1, cherry => 2 );

$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);

PureBasic

Basic Enumeration is defined as

Enumeration
   #Apple
   #Banana
   #Cherry
EndEnumeration

This can also be adjusted to the form

Enumeration 10200 Step 12 
  #Constant1           ; 10200
  #Constant2           ; 10212
  #Constant3           ; 10224
  #Constant4 = 10117   ; 10117
  #Constant5           ; 10229
EndEnumeration

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;

Enumeration #PB_Compiler_EnumerationValue
  #Constant_A           ; 10241
  #Constant_B           ; 10242
EndEnumeration

Enumeration groups can also be named to allow continuation where a previous named group left off.

;This starts the enumeration of a named group 'NamedGroup'.
Enumeration NamedGroup 5
  #Green                ; 5
  #Orange               ; 6

Python

Python: Version 3.4+

Note: enumerations have come to Python version 3.4.

>>> from enum import Enum
>>> Contact = Enum('Contact', 'FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME, PHONE')
>>> Contact.__members__
mappingproxy(OrderedDict([('FIRST_NAME', <Contact.FIRST_NAME: 1>), ('LAST_NAME', <Contact.LAST_NAME: 2>), ('PHONE', <Contact.PHONE: 3>)]))
>>> 
>>> # Explicit
>>> class Contact2(Enum):
	FIRST_NAME = 1
	LAST_NAME = 2
	PHONE = 3

	
>>> Contact2.__members__
mappingproxy(OrderedDict([('FIRST_NAME', <Contact2.FIRST_NAME: 1>), ('LAST_NAME', <Contact2.LAST_NAME: 2>), ('PHONE', <Contact2.PHONE: 3>)]))
>>>

Python: Pre version 3.4

Works with: Python version 2.5

There is no special syntax, typically global variables are used with range:

FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME, PHONE = range(3)

Alternately, the above variables can be enumerated from a list with no predetermined length.

vars().update((key,val) for val,key in enumerate(("FIRST_NAME","LAST_NAME","PHONE")))

R

R does not have an enumeration type, though factors provide a similar functionality.

 factor(c("apple", "banana", "cherry"))
# [1] apple  banana cherry
# Levels: apple banana cherry

This thread in the R mail archive contains code for an enum-like class for traffic light colours.

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)

Retro

Retro has a library named enum' for creation of enumerated values.

'/examples/enum.retro include

{ 'a=10 'b 'c 'd=998 'e 'f } a:enum

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)].

/*REXX program illustrates a method of  enumeration  of  constants via  stemmed arrays. */

Ruby

There are plenty of ways to represent enum in Ruby. Here it is just one example:

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

To give a number in turn, there is the following method.

module Card
  # constants
  SUITS = %i(Clubs Hearts Spades Diamonds)
  SUIT_VALUE = SUITS.each_with_index.to_h               # version 2.1+
# SUIT_VALUE = Hash[ SUITS.each_with_index.to_a ]       # before it
  #=> {:Clubs=>0, :Hearts=>1, :Spades=>2, :Diamonds=>3}
 
  PIPS = %i(2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jack Queen King Ace)
  PIP_VALUE = PIPS.each.with_index(2).to_h              # version 2.1+
# PIP_VALUE = Hash[ PIPS.each.with_index(2).to_a ]      # before it
  #=> {:"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

Rust

enum Fruits {
    Apple,
    Banana,
    Cherry
}

enum FruitsWithNumbers {
    Strawberry = 0,
    Pear = 27,
}

fn main() {
    // Access to numerical value by conversion
    println!("{}", FruitsWithNumbers::Pear as u8);
}

Scala

1. Using Algebraic Data Types:

sealed abstract class Fruit
case object Apple extends Fruit
case object Banana extends Fruit
case object Cherry extends Fruit

2. Using scala.Enumeration:

object Fruit extends Enumeration {
  val Apple, Banana, Cherry = Value
}

Scheme

(define apple 0)
(define banana 1)
(define cherry 2)

(define (fruit? atom)
  (or (equal? 'apple atom)
      (equal? 'banana atom)
      (equal? 'cherry atom)))

(This section needs attention from someone familiar with Scheme idioms.)

Using syntax extension

Works with: Chez Scheme

The Implementation

; Syntax that implements a C-like enum; items without assignment take next value.
; Form: (enum <name> <item>...)
; Where <name> is a symbol that will be the name of the enum; <item> are one or
; more expressions that are either symbols or lists of symbol and integer value.
; The symbols are bound to the values.  If a value is not given, then the next
; integer after the one bound to the previous symbol is used (starting at 0).
; The <name> itself is bound to an a-list of the item symbols and their values.

(define-syntax enum
  (lambda (x)
    (syntax-case x ()
      ((_ name itm1 itm2 ...)
        (identifier? (syntax name))
        (syntax
          (begin
            (define name '())
            (enum-help name 0 itm1 itm2 ...)))))))

; Helper for (enum) syntax, above.  Do not call directly!

(define-syntax enum-help
  (lambda (x)
    (syntax-case x ()
      ((_ name nxint)
        (syntax (void)))
      ((_ name nxint (sym val) rest ...)
        (and (identifier? (syntax sym))
             (integer? (syntax-object->datum (syntax val))))
        (syntax
          (begin
            (define sym val)
            (set! name (cons (cons 'sym val) name))
            (enum-help name (1+ val) rest ...))))
      ((_ name nxint sym rest ...)
        (identifier? (syntax sym))
        (syntax
          (begin
            (define sym nxint)
            (set! name (cons (cons 'sym nxint) name))
            (enum-help name (1+ nxint) rest ...)))))))

Example Use

(define-syntax test
  (syntax-rules ()
    ((_ e)
      (printf "~a --> ~s~%" 'e e))))

(printf "~%The 'foo' enum:~%")

(enum foo a (b 10) c (d 20) e (f 30) g)

(test a)
(test b)
(test c)
(test d)
(test e)
(test f)
(test g)
(test foo)
(test (assq 'd foo))
(test (assq 'm foo))

(printf "~%The 'bar' enum:~%")

(enum bar x y (z 99))

(test x)
(test y)
(test z)
(test bar)
Output:
The 'foo' enum:
a --> 0
b --> 10
c --> 11
d --> 20
e --> 21
f --> 30
g --> 31
foo --> ((g . 31) (f . 30) (e . 21) (d . 20) (c . 11) (b . 10) (a . 0))
(assq 'd foo) --> (d . 20)
(assq 'm foo) --> #f

The 'bar' enum:
x --> 0
y --> 1
z --> 99
bar --> ((z . 99) (y . 1) (x . 0))

Sidef

Implicit:

enum {Apple, Banana, Cherry};   # numbered 0 through 2

Explicit:

enum {
    Apple=3,
    Banana,         # gets the value 4
    Cherry="a",
    Orange,         # gets the value "b"
};

Slate

As just unique objects:

define: #Fruit &parents: {Cloneable}.
Fruit traits define: #Apple -> Fruit clone.
Fruit traits define: #Banana -> Fruit clone.
Fruit traits define: #Cherry -> Fruit clone.

As labels for primitive values:

define: #Apple -> 1.
define: #Banana -> 2.
define: #Cherry -> 3.

As a namespace:

ensureNamespace: #fruit &slots: {#Apple -> 1. #Banana -> 2. #Cherry -> 3}.

Using a dictionary:

define: #fruit &builder: [{#Apple -> 1. #Banana -> 2. #Cherry -> 3} as: Dictionary].

Standard ML

datatype fruit =
  Apple
| Banana
| Cherry

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
}

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:]

proc enumerate {name values} {
    interp alias {} $name: {} lsearch $values
    interp alias {} $name@ {} lindex $values
}

it would be used like this:

enumerate fruit {apple blueberry cherry date elderberry}
 
fruit: date
#   ==> prints "3"
fruit@ 2
#   ==> prints "cherry"

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.

needs enum
0 enum| apple banana carrot |
10 enum| foo bar baz |

VBA

Like Visual Basic .NET, actually:

'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
Output:
test
apple equals  0 
kiwi equals  20 
cherry plus kiwi plus pineapple equals  42 

Visual Basic .NET

' Is this valid?!
Enum fruits
apple
banana
cherry
End Enum

' This is correct
Enum fruits
apple = 0
banana = 1
cherry = 2
End Enum

Wren

Wren doesn't support either enums or constants as such but a common way to indicate that a variable should not be mutated is to give it an upper case name and to group related variables together.

The only way to give such a variable a value without setting it explicitly is to add one to the previous such variable which (in effect) is what a C-style enum does. If you declare a variable in Wren without giving it a value, then it is set to the special value null which is no help here.

var APPLE  = 1
var ORANGE = 2
var PEAR   = 3

var CHERRY = 4
var BANANA = CHERRY + 1
var GRAPE  = BANANA + 1

System.print([APPLE, ORANGE, PEAR, CHERRY, BANANA, GRAPE])
Output:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]


It is also possible to create an enum-like class using read-only static properties to get the values. The following code creates such a class dynamically at runtime. Note that the convention in Wren is for properties to begin with a lower-case letter.

Library: Wren-dynamic
import "./dynamic" for Enum

var Fruit = Enum.create("Fruit", ["apple", "orange", "pear", "cherry", "banana", "grape"], 1)
System.print(Fruit.orange)
System.print(Fruit.members[Fruit.cherry - 1])
Output:
2

Z80 Assembly

Translation of: 6502 Assembly

With Explicit Values

You can use labels to "name" any numeric value, whether it represents a constant or a memory location is up to the programmer. Code labels are automatically assigned a value based on what memory location they are assembled to.

Keep in mind that these names do not exist at runtime and are just for the programmer's convenience. None of this "code" below actually takes up any space in the assembled program.

Sunday equ 0
Monday equ 1
Tuesday equ 2
Wednesday equ 3
Thursday equ 4
Friday equ 5
Saturday equ 6

Without Explicit Values

A lookup table is the most common method of enumeration of actual data in assembly. Each element of the table can be accessed by an index, and the starting index is zero. (The index may need to be adjusted for data sizes larger than 1 byte, i.e. doubled for 16-bit data and quadrupled for 32-bit data.) Unlike the above example, these values do indeed take up memory. Using this method when the above enumeration would suffice is incredibly wasteful.

align 8   ;aligns "Days_Of_The_Week" to the next 256-byte boundary. The low byte of "Sunday" will be at memory location &XX00.
          ;this simplifies the lookup process significantly.
Days_Of_The_Week:
    word Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday

Sunday:
    byte "Sunday",0
Monday:
    byte "Monday",0
Tuesday:
    byte "Tuesday",0
Wednesday:
    byte "Wednesday",0
Thursday:
    byte "Thursday",0
Friday:
    byte "Friday",0
Saturday:
    byte "Saturday",0

;This example will load Friday.
ld hl,Days_Of_The_Week  ;get base address of table. (Thanks to the align 8, we know that L = 0.)
ld a,5                  ;0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday, ... 5 = Friday, 6 = Saturday
add a                   ;Multiply A by 2 (this is faster than SLA A. RLCA would have also worked here)
ld L,a                  ;since the table was page-aligned it is sufficient to load A directly into L to properly index the table.
ld e,(hl)               ;get the low byte into E
inc hl                  ;increment HL to high byte
ld d,(hl)               ;get the high byte into D

;now DE contains the pointer to "Friday"
ex de,hl                ;my PrintString routine takes the pointer in HL as the argument so we need to swap DE with HL.
call PrintString        ;prints a null-terminated string to the screen.
ret                     ;return to basic
Output:
Friday

zkl

Enums as thing or type is not supported but they can be simulated by running code at parse time (ie modify the AST before the compiler compiles it).

const RGB_COLOR{  // put color names in a name space
   const RED =0xf00;
   const BLUE=0x0f0, GREEN = 0x00f;
   const CYAN=BLUE + GREEN;  // → 0x0ff
}
println(RGB_COLOR.BLUE);
Output:
240
const X0=N;        // --> 0
const A=N,B=N,C=N; // --> 1,2,3
const{ _n=-1; }    // reset Enum, this should be a const space function
const X=N;	   // -->0

Since const space runs at a different time [vs compile space], you need to really careful if you mix the two [spaces]:

#continuing ...
z:=N;      // -->2 NOT 1 as it is set AFTER Y (compile time vs parse time)
const Y=N; // -->1! because it is set before z
