to declare an enum you start with the keyword "enum" followed by what you want to name it. you follow that with an opening bracket, then on the each lines below you list the members with the keyword "case" followed by what you want to name them. then you finish it with the closing bracket

enum Direction {
case Left
case Right
case Up
case Down
}
