Associating enumerations...

I am trying to make 2 enumerations to equal each other. basically, i have this equalities for each letter of the alphabet:

a = e
b = x
c = i

...and I am trying to associate in some way 2 enumerations with each other, so that when I call the position with, lets say the 'a' letter inside it, 'e' is returned.

Is there a way to do so, or must I stick with the old "switch" statement?

NOTE: It's not homework, It's just something I want to do because I need it to decode something from a game... :o
