Thank you so much for this, really is appreciated & I find it very interesting.
Hey, To answer your question, yes the naming of an enumeration element never changes. Enumeration elements are intended to be immutable and represent constant references to a single object. You can think of an enumeration like this; Code: static final class Food { public static final Food SHARK = new Food(); private Food() { } } Which is exactly this Code: enum Food { SHARK ; private Food() { //private modifier is actually implicit and not needed to ensure // an object cannot be constructed outside of the class } } The food object is immutable, and constant so therefor it follows the uppercase conventional naming.
static final class Food { public static final Food SHARK = new Food(); private Food() { } }
enum Food { SHARK ; private Food() { //private modifier is actually implicit and not needed to ensure // an object cannot be constructed outside of the class } }
