What is the difference between sharpness and smite?

Sharpness and Smite are both enchantments in minecraft, but they serve different purposes. Sharpness increases the overall damage dealt by a weapon, making it more effective against all types of enemies. In contrast, Smite specifically boosts damage against undead mobs, such as Zombies and skeletons, making it particularly useful for fighting those foes. Thus, while Sharpness enhances general combat, Smite provides a targeted advantage against a specific group of enemies.
