Determining if enum value is in list (C#)

Question

I am building a fun little app to determine if I should bike to work.

I would like to test to see if it is either Raining or Thunderstorm(ing).

Answer 1

You should be using the Flags attribute on your enum. Beyond that, you also need to test to see if a particular flag is set by:

(currentWeather.Type & WeatherType.Thunderstorm == WeatherType.Thunderstorm)

This will test if currentWeather.Type has the WeatherType.Thunderstorm flag set.
