+ As well as let assignments Gleam also has constants, which are defined at the + top level of a module. +

+

+ Constants must be literal values, functions cannot be used in their + definitions. +

+

+ Constants may be useful for values that are used throughout your program, + permitting them to be named and to ensure there are no differences in the + definition between each use. +

+

+ Using a constant may be more efficient than creating the same value in + multiple functions, though the exact performance characteristics will depend + on the runtime and whether compiling to Erlang or JavaScript. +
