Can variables really be called such if their value is constant/immutable? :blobhyperthink:

@SteelWool invariables, unvariables, notvariables

I always laugh at every new language I learn treating constants differently, like we haven't landed on a standard for variables that don't vary

@hergaiety @SteelWool This reminds me of Modelica, a physics simulation language, that has constants, parameters and variables

Constants have a fixed value at compile time, parameters are computed at the beginning of a simulation and are constantly during the simulation, and variables are math variables used in equations

It's a pretty neat language
