I'm reading Beginning Visul C# E-book. And I run into this question:

Give the code for a color enumeration based on the short type containing the colors of the rainbow plus black and white. Can this enumeration be based on the byte type?

What pussling me is that why color enumeration can be based on the short type?

Anyone who can help me?

enum Rainbow:short
{
violet,
blue,
......
}
The Defualt type of enumeration is int but u can use any nueric type of u'r will.
