You could even say it's a realer constant that the others, as the compiler can actually see it. The difference between a <code>static const</code> and a <code>#define</code> constant is effectively nil. No extra space is allocated for either one, which was my concern at first. It's generally advised to use <code>static const</code> and <code>static inline</code> instead of <code>#define</code> anyway, I've just been a little late with it.

Or doesn't it matter? Neat, here’s how you’d specify the Virtual Boy map entry format: “16:p2hv_i11″
