I think John Reye's question was more about
whether to use a const qualified variable (pst) 
in a function 
to hold the sum of two variables (st + i),
when the sum was going to be used frequently
and the values of the two variables 
were not going to change within the function.

I would be inclined to use a const qualified variable in such a case.
