Loop through a C# enum's keys AND values [duplicate]

Question

Given the C# enum:

public enum stuffEnum: int
{
    New = 0,
    Old = 1,
    Fresh = 2
}

How do I loop through it in a way that I can copy both the key and its value in a single loop? Something like:

foreach(var item in stuffEnum)
{
    NewObject thing = new NewObject{
       Name = item.Key,
       Number = item.Value
    }
}

So you would end up with 3 objects, with their Name properties set to "New", "Old", and "Fresh", and the Number properties set to 0, 1 and 2.

How do I do this?

The Enum class has the Methods you're looking for.

foreach(int i in Enum.GetValues(typeof(stuff)))
{
    String name = Enum.GetName(typeof(stuff), i);
    NewObject thing = new NewObject
    {
        Name = name,
        Number = i
    };
}
