:nInvalid Constant
An invalid expression is used to assign a value to a
constant.
 
Remember that expressions assigned to constants may contain
numeric constants, symbolic constants, and any of the
arithmetic or logical operators except exponentiation.
 
A string expression assigned to a constant may consist only
of a single literal string.
