Is Defn 3 really valid? Surely Defn 4 is the correct programming terminology, unchanging values are called "constant"? --GingerBeast11:00, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Yes. Definition 4 is specific to a few object-oriented languages (C++ and its relatives), definition 3 is more general. Consider the following usages covered under definition 3: "astaticwebsite "is a website consisting of html/js/image files generated in advance (as opposed to content generated on the fly from database or API queries);"statictype checking "and"staticanalysis "refer to verifying at compile time that your program's source code is correct/safe (as opposed to checking whether your program's observed behavior at run time is correct/safe);" astaticvariable "(in C-like languages) is a variable whose memory location is fixed at compile time (as opposed to the usual automatic local variable, whose memory location depends on how deep your stack is at a given moment at program run time); etc. etc.Tetromino(talk)15:41, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
