Summary  
This chapter covers declaring and initializing constants with the `const` keyword, enforcing their immutability so values cannot be reassigned, which improves code clarity and prevents accidental mistakes.

General domain of usage  
Mathematical calculations

**Constants** are similar to variables however their value, as expressed by the name, is always **constant** or **unchanged**.

Definition

We can declare a constant using the `const` keyword, and it's important to initialize it at the same point as well. Following is the syntax for constant declaration & initialization:
```js
const constantName = data;
```

For example:
```js
const exampleConstant = 123;
```

Changing the value of a constant results in an error:
```js
const exampleConstant = 123;
exampleConstant = 1234; // Error here
```

The names of the constants follow the same naming rules as the variables.
