Just a few weeks until the 2021 JavaScript Full-Stack Bootcamp opens.

Python has no way to enforce a variable to be a constant.
The nearest you can go is to use an enum:
class Constants(Enum):
WIDTH = 1024
HEIGHT = 256
And get to each value using for example Constants.WIDTH.value
.
No one can reassign that value.
Otherwise if you want to rely on naming conventions, you can adhere to this one: declare variables that should never change uppercase:
WIDTH = 1024
No one will prevent to overwrite this value, and Python will not stop it.
That’s what does most Python code you will see.
The 2021 JavaScript Full-Stack Bootcamp will start at the end of March 2021. Don't miss this opportunity, signup to the waiting list!
