Enumerations Challenge without Input #663

Closed rbwhitaker closed 1 year ago

rbwhitaker commented 2 years ago

There are quite a few challenges in the book that deal with a new concept and immediately combine it with user input. In talking with a lot of readers, I feel that was an unfortunate choice. I think it is often better to let people's first experience with the new feature sidestep user input, because it just adds one extra layer of complexity.

To that end, I feel like there deserves to be another challenge related to enumerations that just makes and uses the enumeration without parsing inputs.

Perhaps the trickiest part here is that it needs to somehow fit into the storyline. Should it just be "Simula's Test Part 1"? Or should it be something else entirely?

This has been added. It is a refinement on the island map challenge that was added to arrays.
