I was doing this exercise and noticed that the default test had an issue where it was defining the type being passed to the enum as a struct. Test was failing and the compiler advised to remove the type of Point. When it was removed test ran successfully.
Enums
Rust allows you to define types called "enums" which enumerate possible values. Enums are a feature in many languages, but their capabilities differ in each language. Rust’s enums are most similar to algebraic data types in functional languages, such as F#, OCaml, and Haskell. Useful in combination with enums is Rust's "pattern matching" facility, which makes it easy to run different code for different values of an enumeration.
