@@ -10,6 +10,8 @@ The keyword let
is not the only new way to declare variables. In ES
const
has all the awesome features that let
has, with the added bonus that variables declared using const
are read-only. They are a constant value, which means that once a variable is assigned with const
, it cannot be reassigned.
"use strict"As you can see, trying to reassign a variable declared with
const FAV_PET = "Cats";
FAV_PET = "Dogs"; // returns error
const
will throw an error. You should always name variables you don't want to reassign using the const
keyword. This helps when you accidentally attempt to reassign a variable that is meant to stay constant. A common practice when naming constants is to use all uppercase letters, with words separated by an underscore.
+
+ Note: It is common for developers to use uppercase variable identifiers for immutable values and lowercase or camelCase for mutable values (objects and arrays). In a later challenge you will see an example of a lowercase variable identifier being used for an array.
