title: how to set global const variables in python
body: <p>I am building a solution with various classes and functions all of which need access to some global consants to be able to work appropriately. As there is no <code>const</code> in python, what would you consider best practice to set a kind of global consants.</p>
  
  <pre><code>global const g = 9.8 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I am looking for a kind of the above</p>
  
  <p>edit: How about:</p>
  
  <pre><code>class Const():
      @staticmethod
      def gravity():
          return 9.8
  
  print 'gravity: ', Const.gravity()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>?</p>
