The whole point of a constant is that it never changes, thats also where it got its name.

Well that's its benefit.Whenever you want some variable to be "constant"(stay same throughout,cannot be changed),declare it constant. Example,the value of pi(π) is 3.14 approx,which is a constant.

some values are not mean for change like mathematic constants, 1 minute is 60 secs, etc.. and the program need these constants to further calculate and control other variables.
