// statement can.
const n = 500000000

// arbitrary precision.

// A numeric constant has no type until it's given
// one, such as by an explicit conversion.

// A number can be given a type by using it in a
// context that requires one, such as a variable
// assignment or function call. For example, here
// `math.Sin` expects a `float64`.
