Notice that when you are assigning a value to an enum variable, you must scope the enum

name (EmpType) to the value (Grunt). Because enumerations are a fixed set of name/value pairs, it is

illegal to set an enum variable to a value that is not defined directly by the enumerated type:

static void Main(string[] args)

{

Console.WriteLine("**** Fun with Enums *****");
