A dictionary definition of enumerate is "to name one by one". When I say
"enumerate the members of the group", I mean to list or display the names of
the members one by one. I can enumerate all of the computer objects in an
OU, for example. An enumeration is a list of all of the elements of a
collection. For example, ADS_USER_FLAG_ENUM is an enumeration (list) of all
of the flags in the userAccountControl attribute of Active Directory.
