We could do somewhat better than that:
class Color(Enum): RED, WHITE, BLUE = range(3)
However, it's still slightly annoying that you have to specify how many values there are in the range() call. It would be even nicer it we could just use an infinite iterator, such as
class Color(Enum): RED, WHITE, BLUE = values()
Well, how about: class Color(Enum): values = ('RED', 'WHITE', 'BLUE') ? (replace values with __values__ if you prefer) Regards Antoine.
