Once you have defined a variable constant it means it cannont be modified the correct way to define one is const int var = 42; var+=10; //see here i am trying to directly change the value of var doing this will throw an error.

Constants are those which do not change their value. we can either use the const keyword or #define preprocessor directive to declare constants. For example: const int x=8; x++; printf("%d",x); In this case, u will get a compilation error. Same is the case with #define Syntax: #define x 8 Variables can change their value. For example: int x=2; x++; printf("%d",x); The output in this case will be 3.

Constants are always their initial value. X=1 as a constant X will always = 1 The value of X can not be manipulated. As a variable, the value of X can be manipulated. X=1, Y=2, X=X+Y X now is X=3
