How to select next enum value ?

Question

I've a C# enum type:

private enum DayName { Monday=1, Tuesday=2 ... Sunday=7 };

private DayName today ;

today = DayName.Friday;

How to do something like:

today ++ ;
print(today) ->

and get "Saturday" ?

@AnthonyPegram I don't think if this question is a duplication. The OP doesn't know about DateTime.AddDays. I will do something like this => You can use the following code: `Console.WriteLine(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.GetDayName(DateTime.Today.AddDays(1).DayOfWeek));` — CodeNotFound, Apr 21 '16 at 21:43
@CodeNotFound, you're limiting yourself to the specific details, though the question is broadly applicable, and even the question title is broad. (Not to mention that the user has defined his own custom enum type that deviates from DayOfWeek [by starting at 1, with Sunday at the end, not the beginning].) After solving this problem, the user may very well need to solve another enum problem having nothing to do with dates. — Anthony Pegram, Apr 21 '16 at 21:51
