constants in python

Question

I have read on internet that in python constants are variables which can't be changed. I have created a module const.py and created a constant p=10 in it. When I have imported it in another module and tried to change it by const.p=9 ,it is working. How ?

Answer 1

In Python you can't define constants like in other languages.

Answer 2

There are no constants in Python, only workarounds if you truly feel that it is necessary. You can signal that a value is a constant by using all upper letters for the identifier.

For a workaround you can use @property (in classes). Here is a code explaining it a bit:

Answer 3

The information is misleading.

In Python you have no real constants. They are just using capitals to *suggest* a constant.

A lot in Python follows this idea: Assuming the people stick to conventions and just *know* they shouldn't change a VALUE.

But you can.
