(i)true (ii)false
b)static_cast<cropType>(static_cast<int>(WHEAT)-1)is
WHEAT
(i)true (ii)false
c)Rye>WHEAT
(i)true (ii)false
d) for (crop=wheat; crop<=oats; ++crop)

If you read exercise 2 you will get answers to questions 1.a and 1.b except for a missing semicolon.

I think that you should first try your exercises and then ask us for help if something went wrong

Thanks I already got ex1, , but I am having trouble with 2

Hint:
cout << static_cast<int>(WHEAT);
will help you solving 2.a

If you do something like that for all the questions you will solve the exercise
