The keyword "mutable" directly counteracts its function, allowing for classes to cache data, and a common misconception is that it is the opposite of the keyword "volatile." Even though it is a reserved keyword in Java, it is not used; however, another keyword, "final," serves a partially equivalent purpose. It is often used when sending variables to functions by reference in order to avoid copying large pieces of data, a convention known as its namesake "correctness." For 10 points, name this C++ keyword that specifies that the contents of a variable cannot be changed, a shortening of the word "constant."
