Line 12:

In Java 5.0 enums are lower case, like types, and have their own syntax.

<code>

private enum Coin {

Line 22 ⟶ 23:

Also enums can be used in switches. Classes cannot be used this way.

<code>

switch(menu) {

Line 45 ⟶ 47:

In Java even arrays are technically classes ie

<code>

Object o = new int[10];

</code>

Further compiling:

<code>

public class Test {

private int enum = 10;

}

}

</code>

Yields the error:

<code>

Test.java:2: as of release 1.5, 'enum' is a keyword, and may not be used as an identifier

(try -source 1.4 or lower to use 'enum' as an identifier)

private int enum = 10;

^

1 error
