constants
Things never changing
Constants are values that remain fixed and unchanging.
In math and science, a constant is a quantity that doesn't vary—pi is always approximately 3.14159, the speed of light never wavers.
In programming, constants are variables set once and never modified: The API key is stored as a constant.
Figuratively, constants are the reliable elements in life: Through all the chaos, her friendship was a constant.
