Cannot declare constant it already has a value

New to Julia

I used this struct I created a lot of times, but now, out of nothing, my VSCode started presenting this:

error_constant
error_constant1600×192 23.5 KB

Any idea of what is happening?

I can reproduce this easily:

you see the line at the beginning cow=1.
So my guess you already have defined Cow somewhere else. Didn’t you want to take a break? :wink: Or did you took your nap already?

I know… I’m sorry, but I can’t. The deadline for my graduation project is tomorrow and my Dissertation advisor asked me to do some modifications on it. :sweat:

Couldn´t find it yet. Now the warning is appearing in two other struct files (out of nothing too)!

Use search of VSCode.

If you changed the definition of those structs and didn’t restart julia, this would happen as well. You cannot redefine a struct within a given session; it’s considered const.

It worked! Thank you!

About one year. I already presented it a few times. But now I’m creating a code for generate new data for testing.

Thanks! I had the same issue coming from the fact that I included twice the same file containing a structure definition.
