rustAre there default values in Rust enums


Yes, there are default values in Rust enums. By default, the first variant of an enum is assigned the value 0, and the following variants are assigned values incrementally. For example, the following enum has the variants Foo and Bar:

enum Example {
    Foo,
    Bar,
}

The value of Foo is 0, and the value of Bar is 1. It is also possible to manually assign values to enum variants. For example:

enum Example {
    Foo = 5,
    Bar,
}

In this case, the value of Foo is 5, and the value of Bar is 6. This allows for more control over the values assigned to enum variants.
