+// Remember that little mathematical virtual machine we made using the
+// "unreachable" statement?  Well, there were two problems with the
+// way we were using op codes:
+//
+//   1. Having to remember op codes by number is no good.
+//   2. We had to use "unreachable" because Zig had no way of knowing
+//      how many valid op codes there were.
+// 
+// An "enum" is a Zig construct that lets you give names to numeric
+// values and store them in a set. They look a lot like error sets:
+//
+//     const Fruit = enum{ apple, pear, orange };
+//
+//     const my_fruit = Fruit.apple;
+//
+// Let's use an enum in place of the numbers we were using in the
+// previous version!
+// 
+const std = @import("std");
+
+// Please complete the enum!
+const Ops = enum{ ??? };
