This page allows the user to create a new CYC® constant.

### Creating New Constants

To create a new constant in the KB, enter the name the new constant will have (minus the "#$"), then press the [Create Constant] button. If a constant already exists by that name, a message will appear to that effect. Once a new constant is created, don't forget to assert defining information about it, including an english #$comment.

To see if any existing constants have similar beginnings, enter the intial part of the name into the window and press the [Complete] button. Possible completions will be displayed in a separate completion window which will be reused for future completions. Completion is case sensitive, and requires that JavaScript is enabled in your browser.

To clear the window and start again, press the [Clear] button.

To abort out of the create constant option and return to the previous frame, press the [Cancel Create] button.
