Very personal def: I give constant & variable about the same meaning as 
in math: something predefined, or conversely undefined, at design time 
(which implies in a compiled language also at compile-time).
	f : x --> k.x
k is a constant, x a variable. Same below:
	factor3 = 3;
	int triple (int x) {return factor3 * x;}
Thus, I consider "enum" and "static" (in some of its numerous senses) as 
constant qualifiers.
