Iterating enum getting name and value

Question

I have this simple enum;

public enum MyEnum
{
    FOO = 1,
    BOO = 2,
}

I could use GetValues or GetNames but that excludes the other :-/

If I understand your question correctly

var dict = Enum.GetValues(typeof(MyEnum))
           .Cast<int>()
           .ToDictionary(x => Enum.GetName(typeof(MyEnum), x), x => x);

L.B

For enumerating values you can use `Enum.GetValues(typeof(MyEnum)).Cast()`. Also in order for this to work you need to `import System.Linq` – Thomas Devries Sep 12 '17 at 21:10
