- Field Detail
  - NOMINAL_VALUE
```
public static final int NOMINAL_VALUE
```
    The 'Nominal' literal value. Supports an equality operation on one-to-one object basis. Often used in conjunction with categorized data. Supported mathematical operations: =/≠. Mathematically, it is considered an unordered set. For example, dots with the colors RED, BLUE, and PURPLE can be related to their color but nothing more can be said.

  - ORDINAL_VALUE
```
public static final int ORDINAL_VALUE
```
    The 'Ordinal' literal value. Supports an equality operation as well as a monotonic& nbsp;increasing order. Supported mathematical operations : =/≠ ;& nbsp;</>. Mathematically, it is considered an ordered set.
    
    For example, the rank of a sports team in a ;18-members league is on an ordinal scale. However, the teams with the same difference in rank does not mean that the difference of their achievements or performance is/was equal.

  - INTERVAL_VALUE
```
public static final int INTERVAL_VALUE
```
    The 'Interval' literal value. Supports the same as the ordinal scale but the magnitude of the difference between two values is comparable. Values can be negative. Supported mathematical operations: =/≠ ; ; +/− . Mathematically, it is considered an affine space or line. For example, the temperature in degress Celcius is an interval measure. If you have two temperatures you can quantify the difference.

  - RATIO_VALUE
```
public static final int RATIO_VALUE
```
    The 'Ratio' literal value. Supports the same as an interval scale and additionally has an non-abitrary zero-point. Supported mathematical operations: =/≠ ; ; +/− ; ×/÷. Mathematically, it is considered a field. For example, the temperature in degress Fahrenheit is a ratio scale. It's zero point is non arbitrary as the particles which comprise matter at this temperature have zero kinetic energy.

- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static Scale[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (Scale c : Scale.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static Scale valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
