I wasn't familiar with enum in perl as opposed to C, so I found this interesting to replicate and then supplement from the examples given in enum.pm:
date is 0
time is 1
2020-03-21 2:00 pm
3:00 pm
2020-03-22 2:00:pm
6 is SIX
pref is 2
date is Months_Feb 1
c is 22
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use feature qw{ say };
use enum qw( DATE TIME );
say "date is ", DATE;
say "time is ", TIME;
my @reservations = (
[ '2020-03-21', '2:00 pm' ],
[ '2020-03-21', '3:00 pm' ],
[ '2020-03-22', '2:00:pm' ]
);
my $last_date = "";
for my $reservation (@reservations) {
print $last_date eq $reservation->[DATE] ? ' ' x 10 : $reservation->
+[DATE];
say ' ', $reservation->[TIME];
$last_date = $reservation->[DATE];
}
use enum qw(Forty=40 FortyOne Five=5 Six Seven);
# Yes, you can change the start indexs at any time as in C
say "6 is ", "SIX";
use enum qw(:Prefix_ One Two Three);
## Creates Prefix_One, Prefix_Two, Prefix_Three
say "pref is ", Prefix_Three;
use enum qw(
:Months_=0 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
:Days_=0 Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat
:Letters_=20 A..Z
);
say "date is Months_Feb ", Months_Feb;
say "c is ", Letters_C;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
