Basic Questions
***************
-Create a contract that can be killed and return funds
-=====================================================
-
-First, a word of warning: Killing contracts sounds like a good idea, because "cleaning up"
-is always good, but as seen above, it does not really clean up. Furthermore,
-if Ether is sent to removed contracts, the Ether will be forever lost.
-
-If you want to deactivate your contracts, it is preferable to **disable** them by changing some
-internal state which causes all functions to throw. This will make it impossible
-to use the contract and ether sent to the contract will be returned automatically.
-
-Now to answering the question: Inside a constructor, ``msg.sender`` is the
-creator. Save it. Then ``selfdestruct(creator);`` to kill and return funds.
-
-`example <https://github.com/fivedogit/solidity-baby-steps/blob/master/contracts/05_greeter.sol>`_
-
-Note that if you ``import "mortal"`` at the top of your contracts and declare
-``contract SomeContract is mortal { ...`` and compile with a compiler that already
-has it (which includes `Remix <https://remix.ethereum.org/>`_), then
-``kill()`` is taken care of for you. Once a contract is "mortal", then you can
-``contractname.kill.sendTransaction({from:eth.coinbase})``, just the same as my
-examples.
-
If I return an ``enum``, I only get integer values in web3.js. How to get the named values?
