The system that I'm working often needs to know the string 
value of an enum. e.g. enum week{MON=1, ..., SUN} it; it = 
TUE;
Then when this enum is passed as a parameter the function 
should return the string based on the enum. For instance, 
weekImage(it) will return "TUE". Is it not possible that such 
a functionality can be built into enums?
