Python code snippet - creating enums in python

[chmarr]

There's a ton of "enum" implementations for python, using named tuples, or a special class, or other things. I wanted something that looked as much as possible as an integer, but it was easy to create new instances using a symbolic name, have it print out (repr format) with that name, but otherwise be treated like any other integer

Against all lacking signs thereof, how've you been old bean?

Its been somewhat of a roller coaster... and in the process of deciding if I want to ride it again, now :)

Are you sure? We should get a second opinion on that. You can never trust zombies you know.
