[!code-fsharp[Main](~/samples/snippets/fsharp/lang-ref-1/snippet2102.fs)]

Enumerated types can have one of the following underlying types: `sbyte`, `byte`, `int16`, `uint16`, `int32`, `uint32`, `int64`, `uint16`, `uint64`, and `char`. Enumeration types are represented in the .NET Framework as types that are inherited from `System.Enum`, which in turn is inherited from `System.ValueType`. Thus, they are value types that are located on the stack or inline in the containing object, and any value of the underlying type is a valid value of the enumeration. This is significant when pattern matching on enumeration values, because you have to provide a pattern that catches the unnamed values.

The `enum` function in the F# library can be used to generate an enumeration value, even a value other than one of the predefined, named values. You use the `enum` function as follows.
