488: Highlights

• If you wish to make your programs easier to read, then replace integer constants with enumeration constants.
• If you wish to create a set of enumeration constants, and you want those constants to have consecutive values beginning with 0, then instantiate the following pattern:

  enum {first constant, second constant, ...}; 
  

• If you wish to create a set of enumeration constants, and you want those constants to have specified values, then instantiate the following pattern:

  enum {first constant = first value, 
        second constant = second value, 
        ... 
  };
