Where 302 fits
Why 302 is special
302 says 'look over here, but keep asking here'. It is the right answer for a login redirect or a maintenance page and the wrong one for a permanent move, because search engines keep indexing the original URL. The distinction between 301 and 302 is small in code and large in consequence.
Not just a mathematical number
302is also used in ways where ordinary arithmetic doesn't apply — each listed below with what genuinely does and doesn't follow from it.
- Mathematical number
A genuine quantity — its mathematical properties (prime, square, factors, and so on) are real facts about it.
A genuine quantity that ordinary arithmetic applies to — it can be prime, even, a perfect square, added to another number meaningfully, and so on.
- Code
Also used as a code — HTTP status codes.
An assigned identifier from a fixed registry or standard — its digits don't represent an amount, and arithmetic on it is meaningless (HTTP status 404 + 1 is not a 'better' status; it's a different, unrelated code).

Related numbers & connections
302 marks a temporary redirect, leaving the original URL canonical.
The single most consequential choice in redirect configuration. 301 says the move is permanent and passes search authority on; 302 says it is temporary and keeps the original canonical. Using 302 for a permanent migration is a documented way to lose search traffic.

302 is correct wherever the destination genuinely changes per request or per session — a login flow sending you onward, a maintenance page, an A/B split. Its defining property is that the original URL stays canonical, which is exactly what makes it wrong for a permanent move.
