A better enumeration - Type safe from start to end

Read Original

This technical article details the limitations of C#'s native enum type, such as invalid value assignment and reflection-based ToString(). It then provides a step-by-step guide to building a custom, type-safe enumeration class using static readonly fields and a generic base class to enable better validation, custom methods, and safe iteration.
