main advantage is not a mempry dumps but the fact you can use it as an 'ad hoc' constant which you dont need to define 
which is realy tremendous advantage,
it is also vey quick to compare etc, 
if defined uniformly it is same acros platforms in whole uniwerse etc

bit sad its not so storage efficient
as only like 26+26+10+some = about 64 to  96 / 256 is normally printable (in fact more maybe im not sure how it would like including utf-8) is printable, but probably it is standable, 

biggest problem is here that this 8-letter long dont work
