enum WeekDay
{
    Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
}

{
    static void Main()
    {
        int i = (int)WeekDay.Monday;

        Console.WriteLine(i);

        //We can even convert integer back to enum value.

        WeekDay day = (WeekDay)2;

        Console.WriteLine(day);
    }
