Java Enum Examples

Description:

Few points about enum types are:

they are implicitly final subclasses of java.lang.Enum. Enum constants are by default public static final fields. If you declare Enum is a member of your class, then by default it is static. We should not use new operator with enum type at anytime.

Difference between Enumeration and Iterator

The functionality of Enumeration and the Iterator are same. You can get remove() from Iterator to remove an element, while while Enumeration does not have remove() method. Using Enumeration you can only traverse and fetch the objects, where as using Iterator we can also add and remove the objects. So Iterator can be useful if you want to manipulate the list and Enumeration is for read-only access.
