I have here an enum. In main class I need to find out if the card on FE. 12th place is ENERGY or not. And I also don't know, how to write it (I mean how to write if the card on 12th place is ENERGY, do sth.. Could anyone help me pls? Thanks for reacting.

I don't know how to reffer to the enum. For example, I have one chosen card and in my main class I need to find out, which type is chosen. FE if card chosen is ENERGY, do sth. If not, do sth else. But I don't know how to reffer to the enum.

ok, I'll give you an example. I wrote there Collections.shuffle. I just need to check if the deck is shuffled. I wanted to write System.out.println(" and here is written the name of the card, but sth like "galciv.Card@7a3570b0" but I need to see here just "ENERGY" - the concrete name of the card"). Do you understand?

Does it work?

--- Update ---

I have there Collections.shuffle. I need to check, if the deck is really suffled, so I want to add there System.out.println("and here the name of the each cards"). But if I do it, I just get value like "galciv.Card@6627e353". But I need there value like "ENERGY" - the real name of the card.

I just put only the beginning of the program, the program itself has over 400 lines. I have there Collection.shuffle - I want to shuffle the deck. To check out, if it is really shuffled, I want to add there System.out.println("here the name of each card"). I got value like "galciv.Card@6627e353" but I in fact want sth like "ENERGY" - the real name of the card.
