We said earher that $C++VO$ statements don't automatically understand the data rypes of enumerations. Instead, the $)>>($ and $()$ operators think of such variables simply as inte gers. You can overcome this limitation by using switch statements to translate between the escr's way of expressing an enumerated variable and the actual values of the enumerated variable. For example, imagine an enumerated type with values that indicate an erpiloyee type within an organization:

enum etype $/$ laborer, secretary$,$ manager, accountant, executive, researcher
