C++ Simple input/out program + enumerators - c++

Question

Assignment"Rewrite the menu chooser program from chapter using an enumerator to represent difficulty levels. the variable choice will still be of type int."
The first set of code is the original menu chooser program in its original untainted form. The second set of code is what I added to it in order to complete the assignment.
The only thing I want to ask is: Did I complete my assignment correctly. If I did it wrong, can someone please explain what I did wrong. I'm very new at this.
Code Set # 1 - Original
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
cout << "Difficulty Levels\n\n";
cout << "1 - Easy\n";
cout << "2 - Normal\n";
cout << "3 - Hard\n";
int choice;
cout << "Choice: ";
cin >> choice;
switch (choice)
{
case 1:
cout << "You picked Easy.\n";
break;
case 2:
cout << "You picked Normal.\n";
break;
case 3:
cout << "You picked Hard.\n";
break;
default:
cout << "You made an illegal choice.\n";
}
return 0;
}
Code Set # 2 - Assignment
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Difficulty Levels\n\n";
cout << "0 - Novice\n";
cout << "1 - Easy\n";
cout << "2 - Normal\n";
cout << "3 - Hard\n";
cout << "4 - Unbeatable\n\n";
enum {Novice = 0, Easy = 1, Normal = 2, Hard = 3, Unbeatable = 4};
int choice;
cout << "Choice: ";
cin >> choice;
switch (choice)
{
case 0:
cout << "You have picked Novice.\n";
break;
case 1:
cout << "You picked Easy.\n";
break;
case 2:
cout << "You picked Normal.\n";
break;
case 3:
cout << "You picked Hard.\n";
break;
case 4:
cout << "You picked Unbeatable.\n";
break;
default:
cout << "You made an illegal choice.\n";
}
return 0;
}

Answer 1

I would do something like this:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Difficulty Levels\n\n";
cout << "0 - Novice\n";
cout << "1 - Easy\n";
cout << "2 - Normal\n";
cout << "3 - Hard\n";
cout << "4 - Unbeatable\n\n";
enum {NOVICE = 0, EASY = 1, NORMAL = 2, HARD = 3, UNBEATABLE = 4};
int choice;
cout << "Choice: ";
cin >> choice;
switch (choice) {
case NOVICE:
cout << "You have picked Novice.\n";
break;
case EASY:
cout << "You picked Easy.\n";
break;
case NORMAL:
cout << "You picked Normal.\n";
break;
case HARD:
cout << "You picked Hard.\n";
break;
case UNBEATABLE:
cout << "You picked Unbeatable.\n";
break;
default:
cout << "You made an illegal choice.\n";
break;
}
return 0;
}
This way you're showing you're at least using your enum.
