Idiom #269 Enum to String

Given the enumerated type t with 3 possible values: bike, car, horse.
Set the enum value e to one of the allowed values of t.
Set the string s to hold the string representation of e (so, not the ordinal value).
Print s.

declare
   type T is (Bike, Car, Horse);
   E : constant T      := Horse;
   S : constant String := T'Image (E);
begin

end;
T e = T.Horse;
string s = e.ToString();
Console.WriteLine(s);
var e = t.bike;
var s = e.name;
print(s);
