You can use it! :)

sorry, I just confuse myself

Yes, you can.

local static: When using 'static' on a lower level (like you did) it's value will be remembered.

Code:
myCode()

{

    for (new i; i < 10; i++)

    {

        static x;

        x++;

        printf("%i", x);

    }

}

This would print "1" up to "10". If you would use "new x;" it would print "1" 10 times.

global static: When using 'static' on highest level (outside any function, eg. near your includes) it means that variable may only be used in that file.

const: constant. When declaring a variable as a constant it cannot be altered. Eg. if you'd try to use format() or simply setting the value of your string in your example, it would not compile.
