As usual, lets revisit something that Pascal could do in 1976,

    type

    StatusCodes = (Success, Ongoing, Done)

Go in 2025,

    type StatusCodes int

    const (
        Success StatusCodes = iota
        Ongoing
        Done
    )

Where's Pascal today?

If you prefer, I can provide the same example in C, C++, D, Java, C#, Scala, Kotlin, Swift, Rust, Nim, Zig, Odin.
