Constants are declared with `const`. They can only be defined
|

at the module level (outside of functions).

Constant values can never be changed. You can also declare a single

constant separately:

V constants are more flexible than in most languages. You can assign more complex values:

### Required module prefix
|
||||
|
||||
When naming constants, `snake_case` must be used. In order to distinguish consts
|
||||
from local variables, the full path to consts must be specified. For example,
|
||||
to access the PI const, full `math.pi` name must be used both outside the `math`
|
||||
module, and inside it. That restriction is relaxed only for the `main` module
|
||||
(the one containing your `fn main()`, where you can use the shorter name of the
|
||||
constants too, i.e. just `println(numbers)`, not `println(main.numbers)` .
|
||||
(the one containing your `fn main()`), where you can use the unqualified name of
|
||||
constants defined there, i.e. `numbers`, rather than `main.numbers`.
|
||||
|
||||
vfmt takes care of this rule, so you can type `println(pi)` inside the `math` module,
|
||||
and vfmt will automatically update it to `println(math.pi)`.

well in V, because consts are a lot more powerful than in other languages.

They can represent complex structures, and this is used quite often since there

are no globals:
