Can enums be used to create a chain of responsibility?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only with interfaces

  4. Not applicable

The correct answer is: Yes

Yes, enums can be used to create a chain of responsibility by defining enum constants that represent different handlers, creating a method to assign a handler to each enum constant, and implementing a recursive method to retrieve and execute the correct handler based on the given input. Option B is incorrect because enums can indeed be used to create a chain of responsibility. Option C is incorrect because while interfaces can also be used to create a chain of responsibility, they are not the only option. Option D is incorrect because creating a chain of responsibility is a feasible and applicable use case for enums.
