    336336\section{Enum Trait}
    337 A typed enum comes with traits capture enumeration charastics and helper functions.
    338 
     337The header file @<enum.hfa>@ defines traits implemented by, and sets of operators and helper functions defined for enum.
     338

    339341\begin{cfa}
    340342forall(E) trait Bounded {
     
    343345};
    344346\end{cfa}
    345 \CFA enums satisfy Bounded trait thanks to the compiler implementing lowerBound() and upperBound(), with
    346 lowerBound() returning the first enumerator and upperBound() return the last.
    347

     350
     351\CFA enums satisfy Bounded trait thanks to the default implemention of @lowerBound()@ and @upperBound()@, with
     352@lowerBound()@ returning the first enumerator and @upperBound()@ returning the last.
     353
     354\begin{figure}
     355\small
    348356\begin{cfa}
    349357Workday day1 = lowerBound(); // Monday
    350358Planet lastPlanet = upperBound(); // NEPTUNE
    351359\end{cfa}
    352 
    353 Because lowerBound() and upperBound() are overloaded with return types only, calling either functions
    354 in a null context cause type ambiguity if than one type implementing Bounded traits, including typed enumerations.
    355 \begin{cfa}
    356 Workday day1 = lowerBound(); // Okay because rhs hints lowerBound() to return a Workday
     360\caption{f:Bound Functions}
     361\label{f:BoundFunctions}
     362\end{figure}
     363
     364@lowerBound()@ and @upperBound()@ are overloaded with return types only. Calling either functions
     365without a context can result in type ambiguity if more than one types implement the functions from the @Bounded@ traits.
     366Because \CFA enum types implements @Bounded@, multiple type enumerations in the same lexical scope will
     367cause ambiguity on @lowerBound()@ and @upperBound()@ \see{\VRef{f:BoundFunctions} }.
     368

     372// lowerBound(); // Error because both Planet and Workday implement Bounded
     373Workday day1 = lowerBound(); // Okay because type of day1 hints lowerBound() to return a Workday
    357374void foo(Planet p);
    358 foo( upperBound() ); Okay because foo's parameter give type hint
    359 // lowerBound(); // Error because both Planet and Workday implements Bounded
    360 \end{cfa}
    361 
     375foo( upperBound() ); Okay because foo expects value with type Planet as parameter

    363384forall(E | Bounded(E)) trait Serial {
     
    368389};
    369390\end{cfa}
    370 A Serial type can be mapped to a sequnce of integer. For enum types, fromInstance(E e) is equivalent to
    371 posE(E e). Enumerations implement fromInt(), succ(), and pred() with bound() check.
    372 For an enum declares N enumerators, fromInt(i) returns the ith enumerator of type E if $0 \leq i < N$.
    373 If e is the i-th enumerator, succ(e) returns the i+1-th enumerator if $e != upperBound()$ and pred(e)
    374 returns the i-1-th enumerator $e != lowerBound()$. \CFA compile gives an error if bound check fails.
    375 
     391\caption{Bounded Trait}

     394
     395A Serial type is a @Bounded@ type where elements can be mapped to an integer sequence.
     396A serial type @T@ can project to the integer type: an instance of type T has a corresponding integer value,
     397but the inverse may not be possible, and possible requires a bound check.
     398
     399The mapping from a serial type to integer is defined as @fromInstance(E e)@.
     400For enum types, @fromInstance(E e)@ is equivalent to getting the position of e.
     401The inverse of @fromInstance(E e)@ is @fromInt(unsigned i)@ and \CFA implements it with a bound check.
     402For an enum @E@ declares N enumerators, @fromInt(i)@ returns the $i-1_{th}$ enumerator if $0 \leq i < N$, or error otherwises.
     403
     404The Serial trait provides interface functions @succ(E e)@ and @pred(E e)@ as members of a serial type are consecutive and ordinal.
     405If @e@ is the $i_{th}$ enumerator, @succ(e)@ returns the $i+1_{th}$ enumerator when $e != upperBound()$, and @pred(e)@
     406returns the $i-1_{th}$ enumerator when $e != lowerBound()$.
     407\CFA compiler gives an error if the result of the operation is out the domain of type @T@.
     408

    383 
    384 The TypedEnum trait capture three basic attributes of type enums. TypedEnum asserts two types E and T, with T being the base type of enumeration E.
    385 With an assertion on TypedEnum, we can implement functions for all type enums.
    386

     421
     422The @TypedEnum@ trait captures three basic attributes of a type enum: value, label, and position.
     423TypedEnum asserts two types @E@ and @T@, with @T@ being the base type of enumeration @E@.
     424Implementing functions for general type enums is possible by asserting @TypeEnum(E, T)@.
     425
     426\begin{figure}

    395439@<enum.hfa>@ overwrites comparison operators for type enums.
     440\begin{figure}
     441\small
    396442\begin{cfa}
    397443forall(E, T| TypedEnum(E, T)) {
    398444        // comparison
    399         int ?==?(E l, E r);
    400         int ?!=?(E l, E r);
    401         int ?!=?(E l, zero_t);
    402         int ?<?(E l, E r);
    403         int ?<=?(E l, E r);
    404         int ?>?(E l, E r);
    405         int ?>=?(E l, E r);
    406 }
    407 \end{cfa}
    408 These overloaded operators are not defined if the file is not included.
    409 In this case, the compiler converts an enumerator to its value, and applies the operators
    410 if they are defined for the value type T.
    411 
     445        int ?==?(E l, E r); // returns True if l and r are the same enumerator
     446        int ?!=?(E l, E r); // returns True if l and r are the different enumerator
     447        int ?!=?(E l, zero_t); // return True if l is not the first enumerator
     448        int ?<?(E l, E r); // return True if l is an enuemerator before r
     449        int ?<=?(E l, E r); // return True if l==r or l<r
     450        int ?>?(E l, E r); // return True if l is an enuemrator after r
     451        int ?>=?(E l, E r); // return True if l>r or l==r
     452}
     453\end{cfa}
     454\caption{Enum Operators}
     455\label{f:EnumOperators}
     456\end{figure}
     457The overloaded operators in \ref{f:EnumOperators} are defined when and only when the header @<enum.hfa>@ is included.
     458If not, the compiler converts an enumerator to its value, and applies the operators defined for the value type @T@.
     459
     460\begin{figure}
     461\small
    412462\begin{cfa}
    413463// if not include <enum.hfa>
    414464enum(int) Fruits {
    415         APPLE = 2, BANANA=1, CHERRY=2
    416 };
    417 APPLE == CHERRY; // True because they have the same Value
     465        APPLE = 2, BANANA=10, CHERRY=2
     466};
     467APPLE == CHERRY; // True because valueE(APPLE) == valueE(CHERRY)
    418468#include <enum.hfa>
    419469APPLE == CHERRY; // False because they are different enumerator
    420470\end{cfa}

     472\label{f:IncludeHeader}

     474
     475An enumerator returns its @position@ by default. In particular,
     476@printf(...)@ from @<stdio.h>@ functions provides no context to its parameter type,
     477so it prints @position@.
     478
     479On the other hand, the pipeline operator @?|?(ostream os, E enumType)@ provides type context for type @E@, and \CFA
     480has overwritten this operator to prints enumeration @value@ over @position@.
     481\begin{figure}
     482\small
     483\begin{cfa}
     484printf("Position of BANANA is \%d", BANANA); // Postion of BANANA is 1
     485sout | "Value of BANANA is " | BANANA; // Value of BANANA is 10
     486\end{cfa}
     487\caption{Print Enums}
     488\label{f:PrintEnum}
     489\end{figure}
     490
     491Programmers can overwrite this behaviour by overloading the pipeline operator themselve.
