using the define method modified like jemington suggested
Sketch uses 82252 bytes (0%) of program storage space. Maximum is 16777216 bytes.
Global variables use 53480 bytes (19%) of dynamic memory, leaving 216856 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 270336 bytes.
using the define method with for loop using byte

Using the const method with for loop uses unsigned int

Using the const method with for loop iterator using byte
Sketch uses 82244 bytes (0%) of program storage space. Maximum is 16777216 bytes.

Memory wise it didnt really matter but the const byte plus for loop byte combination was 8bytes shorter program space wise.
Does it really matter with the enormous 16.7 MB of storage, no , but it sure will be what i am going to do goinng forward as a good progrramming habbit
