Why would a Java programmer incorporate the concept of Enum into their code?

Since there are no right or wrong answers to this question, the only requirement is that your answer is genuine, well thought out, and defensible. As long as you can justify your answer and provide some background, you are answering correctly. You may also want to take a few seconds to organize your thoughts before beginning to answer the interviewer's question since they are judging your communication style. Hesitating, using pauses such as 'uh' and 'um,' and other bad communication techniques may jeopardize your success during the interview.

"The reason I incorporate Enum into my code when programming in Java is that Enum is the list of constants. Therefore, it is useful when defining a list of constants. Enum is also useful when the list of outcomes is limited."
