In combination with enums, we have the concept of `pattern matching` in Rust, which makes it easy to run different code for different values of an enumeration. Enums, while available in many languages, Rust's enums are most similar to `algebraic data types` in functional languages, such as F#, OCaml, and Haskell. +Rust allows you to define types called "enums" which enumerate possible values. +Enums are a feature in many languages, but their capabilities differ in each language.
