CONST constantname = expression [,constantname = expression]...
 
    ■ constantname    A name that follows the same naming rules as
                      a BASIC variable. You can add a type-declaration
                      character (%, &, !, #, @, or $) to indicate its
                      type, but this character is not part of the name.
    ■ expression      Consists of literals, other constants, or any of
                      the arithmetic and logical operators except
                      exponentiation (^).
