equality using enum

[applee]

Hi guys,
I'm not sure how to test equality using enum. Is this code valid?

enum month = {January; February; March;};
struct Date = {int day, int month, int year};

bool(Date birthday)
{
if(birthday.month == February) return true;
else return false;
}
Thanks!

Yes, you can test for equality with operator==.

There are a few syntax errors in your sample, though, here's a working example (I'll rename enum month to enum Month to allow a variable named month, and I'll simplify the function a bit)

#include <iostream>

enum Month {
    January,
    February,
    March
};

struct Date {
    int day;
    Month month;
    int year;
};

bool is_bday_february(Date birthday)
{
    return birthday.month == February;
}
int main()
{
    Date d1{1, February, 2011};
    std::cout << std::boolalpha << is_bday_february(d1) << '\n';
    Date d2{1, March, 2011};
    std::cout << std::boolalpha << is_bday_february(d2) << '\n';
}
