Python: Constants
Some data never change - for example, mathematical constants. Take π as an example. It is always 3.14 and cannot change. Python uses constants to refer to this kind of data:
PI = 3.14
print(PI) # => 3.14
A constant is created in the same way as a variable. The only difference is that constants are usually named with capital letters have and _
as a separator between words. A constant, like a variable, can be used in any expression.
Instructions
Create a constant DRAGONS_BORN_COUNT
and write the number 3 in it, which is the number of dragons born to Daenerys.
Definitions
Constant a way to store information and name it for later use in code; constants cannot be changed, unlike variables.
