You are printing the enum object. Use the .value attribute if you wanted just to print that:
print(D.x.value)
See the Programmatic access to enumeration members and their attributes section:
If you have an enum member and need its name or value:
>>> >>> member = Color.red >>> member.name 'red' >>> member.value 1
You could add a __str__ method to your enum, if all you wanted was to provide a custom string representation:
class D(Enum):
def __str__(self):
return str(self.value)
x = 1
y = 2
Demo:
>>> from enum import Enum
>>> class D(Enum):
... def __str__(self):
... return str(self.value)
... x = 1
... y = 2
...
>>> D.x
<D.x: 1>
>>> print(D.x)
1
