What is the difference between array and enum in C ?

Array is a variable that can contain multiple elements with index starting from 0 whereas enum is an user defined datatype that contains a list of members for which an integer constant is assigned starting from 0. in case of enum the numbers starting from 0 are not indexes whereas in case of an array they are indexes. Also in case of enum you can assign your own constant values to the members that may or may not start from 0 and may or may not be in a sequence.
