What is the use of constant class?
Why would we want to use constant objects? Could someone give me some examples where it might be useful? Edit: I understand the use of constant variables to hold constant values such as pi, but what about constant class?

Pi? Days of week? Months of year? etc... Anything that is constant and doesn't change - opposite of a variable.

A way to make code easier is the most common.
However, declaration of constants can be based on preprocessor directives. You may want to restrict a buffer size based on the platform, for example.

It also saves a lot of memory as your program will know that this variable cannot be changed later on in the code.
