In the following method,

public void InspectList(IList<int> values)
{
    if(values != null)
    {
        const string format = "Element At {0}";
        foreach(int i in values)
        {
            Log(string.Format(format, i));
        }
    }   
}

Does the use of const provide any benefit over just declaring the string as a string? Woudl it not be interned anyway?
