enum
{
  BEGIN,
  MIDDLE,
  END
}

is that the enum{} actually allocates integer storage, but the #defines are just literal constants. I suppose that means that #defines use less RAM than enum{}.

I've been told, and have deduced from compiler errors that #defines are essentially copy-paste definitions for the compiler.

Am I correct?
