Description

There are some places in the codebase where we are using "magic numbers" (numbers that values don't have a clear reason what they are or why they are that value). These numbers should be replaced with constants in a new or existing constants file that clearly labels what they are

Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify magic numbers in the codebase and replace them with named constants in an existing or new constants file.
