You can use const
anywhere you can use let
to declare a variable. You use it
for variables whose value will not change.
Many programmers consider it a best practice to use it for any variable that that does not specifically need to be mutable to avoid unintended side effects from accidentally reassigning a value.
const s = "constant";
console.log(s, typeof s);
// error: can't assign value to a constant
// s = "nope";
const n = 500000000;
console.log(n, typeof n);
const d = 3e20 / n;
console.log(d, typeof d);
console.log(Math.sin(n));
constant string
500000000 number
