important properties of an inductor are:

1) voltage across an inductor is 0 when the current is constant 2) the current through an inductor cannot change instantaneously (opposition to change in current flowing) 3) *ideal* inductor does not dissipate energy. 4) practical, *nonideal* inductor has a significant resistive component.
