Question

Create vector of Color variables

Use a loop to ask the user to enter the names of colors.
For each color entered, add the corresponding Color enumeration value to the vector.
Ignore any invalid color that is entered (that is, a color that doesn't exist in the enumeration).
Exit the loop when end is entered.
After exiting the loop, iterate through the vector printing out each of the values in the vector.
Sample output (user input is in bold):

What color do you want to add?
red
What color do you want to add?
yellow
What color do you want to add?
superdupergreen
What color do you want to add?
orange

vector<Color> colors;

Color color;

string input;

while(true){

cout<<"What color do you want to add? ";

if(input=="end"){

break;

}else if(input=="red"){

color = red;

}

for(int i=0;i<colors.size();i++){

cout<<colors[i]<<endl;
