Const Name = Expression

Defines a symbolic name for a constant.

Constants defined outside of procedures are always global.

A type suffix (e.g. % for Integer, see the section Data types) can be attached to the name, determining the data type of the constant. Otherwise, the type is Long, Double or String, depending on the value.
