## Usage

```javascript
var enum2str = require( '@stdlib/strided/base/dtype-enum2str' );
```

#### enum2str( dtype )

Returns the data type `string` associated with a strided array data type enumeration constant.

```javascript
var str2enum = require( '@stdlib/strided/base/dtype-str2enum' );

var v = str2enum( 'float64' );
// returns <number>

var dt = enum2str( v );
// returns 'float64'
```

If unable to resolve a data type `string`, the function returns `null`.

```javascript
var v = enum2str( -999999999 );
// returns null
```
