Program: Constant
By: Ben Axelrod

   This program fills up the variables with physical constants that science 
classes use frequently.  There are 15 constants in SI units, and gravity is 
also given in English units.  The program displays two screens with the names
of the constants and what they are saved as.  Feel free to edit this program 
and add some of your own favorite constants.


Here is a list of the constants included:
