Enums vs Constants
Developers should learn and use enums to improve code clarity, reduce errors, and enhance type safety in their applications meets developers should use constants to define values that remain unchanged throughout a program, such as mathematical constants (e. Here's our take.

Pros

- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Enums if: You want they are particularly useful in scenarios like defining states (e and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Constants if: You prioritize g over what Enums offers.
