Enumerated Type - Visual Basic/VBA

Visual Basic/VBA

Enumerated datatypes in Visual Basic (up to version 6) and VBA are automatically assigned the "Long" datatype and also become a datatype themselves:

Enum CardSuit Clubs Diamonds Hearts Spades End Enum Sub EnumExample Dim suit As CardSuit suit = Diamonds MsgBox suit End Sub

Example Code in vb.Net

Enum CardSuit Clubs Diamonds Hearts Spades End Enum Sub EnumExample Dim suit As CardSuit suit = CardSuit.Diamonds MsgBox(suit) End Sub

Famous quotes containing the words visual and/or basic:

    “To write well, to have style ... is to paint. The master faculty of style is therefore the visual memory. If a writer does not see what he describes—countrysides and figures, movements and gestures—how could he have a style, that is originality?”
    —Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

    “Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation.... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
