const

Constants are evaluated at compile time and their values are inlined wherever they are used:

const DIGEST_SIZE: usize = 3;
const FILL_VALUE: u8 = calculate_fill_value();

const fn calculate_fill_value() -> u8 {
    if DIGEST_SIZE < 10 {
        42
    } else {
        13
    }
}

fn compute_digest(text: &str) -> [u8; DIGEST_SIZE] {
    let mut digest = [FILL_VALUE; DIGEST_SIZE];
    for (idx, &b) in text.as_bytes().iter().enumerate() {
        digest[idx % DIGEST_SIZE] = digest[idx % DIGEST_SIZE].wrapping_add(b);
    }
    digest
}

fn main() {
    let digest = compute_digest("Hello");
    println!("digest: {digest:?}");
}

According to the Rust RFC Book these are inlined upon use.

Only functions marked const can be called at compile time to generate const values. const functions can however be called at runtime.
