I am only a hobbyist, so take this for what it's worth. I am very puzzled by Gareth's insistence on this issue. It seems to me that, if there is a chance that a value read from some external source might have a value outside the range of an enum, then enum is not the right data type for that operation. Use an appropriate integer type instead.
