why would we use enum in javascript code example
Example: javascript enum
const seasons = {
SUMMER: {
BEGINNING: "summer.beginning",
ENDING: "summer.ending"
},
WINTER: "winter",
SPRING: "spring",
AUTUMN: "autumn"
};
let season = seasons.SUMMER.BEGINNING;
if (!season) {
throw new Error("Season is not defined");
}
switch (season) {
case seasons.SUMMER.BEGINNING:
// Do something for summer beginning
case seasons.SUMMER.ENDING:
// Do something for summer ending
case seasons.SUMMER:
// This will work if season = seasons.SUMMER
// Do something for summer (generic)
case seasons.WINTER:
//Do something for winter
case seasons.SPRING:
//Do something for spring
case seasons.AUTUMN:
//Do something for autumn
}
