Reply to Steven - Sorry for creating confusions.
1. Leave debugging. As I said that's not a good argument for the existence of constants. 2. "Constants doesn't mean we can't reassign the name to a different value." was differently intended. I was trying to say that we should *treat* it like a *literal*. I never said constant will be a type of variable. I was a little bit unclear in that message. 3. Constant will be constant name binding. Value can be mutated (if mutable) but the name cannot be reassigned. 4. constant pi = 3.14 # later pi = 3.1415 # Error _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/N3OEMQVQ5EZSNW4ZG223RMPP4VATF3F6/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
