An enumeration is a data type whose values are enumerated in the model as enumeration literals.

Enumeration is a kind of data type, whose instances may be any of a number of user-defined enumeration literals. It is possible
to extend the set of applicable enumeration literals in other packages or profiles.

No additional constraints
The run-time instances of an Enumeration are data values. Each such value corresponds to exactly one EnumerationLiteral .
An enumeration may be shown using the classifier notation (a rectangle) with the keyword «enumeration». The name of the enumeration
is placed in the upper compartment. A compartment listing the attributes for the enumeration is placed below the name compartment.
A compartment listing the operations for the enumeration is placed below the attribute compartment. A list of enumeration
literals may be placed, one to a line, in the bottom compartment. The attributes and operations compartments may be suppressed,
and typically are suppressed if they would be empty.
