If you are interested in discovering the value of a given enumeration variable, rather than its

name, you can simply cast the enum variable against the underlying storage type. For example:

static void Main(string[] args)

{

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

EmpType emp = EmpType.Contractor;

// Prints out "Contractor = 100".

Console.WriteLine("{0} = {1}", emp.ToString(), (byte)emp);

Console.ReadLine();

}

Enum.Format()

method provides a finer level of formatting options by specifying a desired

System.Enum.Format()

method.

System.Enum also defines another static method named GetValues(). This method returns an

instance of System.Array. Each item in the array corresponds to a member of the specified enumer-

ation. Consider the following method, which will print out each name/value pair within any

enumeration you pass in as a parameter:
