How to enumerate an enum

Question

How can you enumerate an enum in C#?

E.g. the following code does not compile:

public enum Suit
{         


        

Answer 1

There are two ways to iterate an Enum:

1. var values =  Enum.GetValues(typeof(myenum))
2. var values =  Enum.GetNames(typeof(myenum))

The first will give you values in form on an array of **object**s, and the second will give you values in form of an array of **String**s.

Use it in a foreach loop as below:

foreach(var value in values)
{
    // Do operations here
}
