Positions 21-42 (Constant)

In positions 21-42 enter the constant or edit word being declared. The constant may be continued on subsequent lines by coding a hyphen as the last character. For character named constants the hyphen replaces the ending quote. A continued numeric constant must result in a valid decimal number with at most 30 digits, a maximum of 9 being to the right of the decimal point. Named constants can be declared anywhere in the input specifications.
