Enumerations and the switch Decision Statement - 19

A found it a little misleading when you (Bob) refer to the ComplexIfStatement, kind of inferred or suggested that the Select Case decision statement can't do what the ComplexIfStatement does. (Especially with Option Strict Off)

See Example Below.

Module Module1

  Sub Main()
    SelectCase_Example()
    Console.WriteLine()
    SuperHero_Example()
    Console.ReadLine()
  End Sub
  Public Sub SelectCase_Example()
    Console.WriteLine("Select Case Example")
    Dim value = 42
    Select Case value
      Case Is < 1, Is > 100 : Console.WriteLine("Out of bounds")
      Case 23, 42, Is > 90 : Console.WriteLine("You Found one of the special numbers")
      Case Else
        Console.WriteLine("Not one of special numbers")
    End Select
  End Sub
  Public Sub SuperHero_Example()
    Console.WriteLine("SuperHero Example")
    GreetSuperHero(11)
    GreetSuperHero(SuperHeros.Batman)
  End Sub

  Public Sub GreetSuperHero(ByVal superhero As SuperHeros)
    Dim IsMemberOfSuperHeros = [Enum].IsDefined(GetType(SuperHeros), superhero)
    If IsMemberOfSuperHeros Then
      Console.WriteLine("Hello: {0}", superhero.ToString)
    Else
      Console.WriteLine("How Are You?")
    End If
  End Sub
  Enum SuperHeros
    Superman
    Batman
    Spiderman
  End Enum
End Module

When you use Enumerations it can be of any value that the underlying type can be. 

See Example Code above
