Can I concatenate a constant's name to retrieve its value?

[bunner_bob]

Say I have some constants:
define('CON1','foo');
define('CON2','bar');

is there a way to concatenate/evaluate a constant's name to read it back - ie

for ($i=1; $i<=2; $i++) {
$thisconstant = 'CON' . $i;
echo $$thisconstant;
}

or some such business - of course this syntax would be wrong for constants. Easy with variables, but can I do it with constants?

I think the magic 8 ball would say "All signs point to No" in this case...

Ahh - the magic 9 ball says:

for ($i=1; $i<=2; $i++) {
echo constant('CON' . $i);
}

thanks to actually looking in the manual ( I am SO lazy...)
