That article made no mention of how the const can be inadvertently modified. In fact, it leads us to believe that is not a possibility.


There's one way a CONST parameter can be changed while the procedure is running. If you pass a global variable by CONST to a subprocedure in the same module, and the subprocedure modifies the global variable directly, then the value of the CONST parameter may reflect the change. It would depend on whether the compiler had passed the global vairable directly or whether it had used a temporary.
