How do I make a constant global variable in Python Please

[Jeff Massung]

Along the same lines... is there a way to say a variable must be declared
before use? I know Perl has something like this. I just want to avoid
something like this following:

ate = 1
while ate:
    # do something here
    ...
    are = 1

This will loop infinitely just because of a typo (that if the above were
added I would get an error saying that "are" wasn't declared).
