How to get choice field values using rest api SharePoint 2013?

The objective of this post is to get choices from a list. It can be very helpful when you will create a custom form for adding or editing items.

$.ajax({
        url: "host url"+"_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('List Name')/fields?$filter=EntityPropertyName eq 'Choice Field Name'",
        type: "GET",
        headers: {
            "accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
        },
        success: function (data) {
            console.log(data.d.results[0].Choices.results);
        },
        error: function (error) {
            alert(JSON.stringify(error));
        }

    });

Above code is a typical ajax call using jQuery. Everything must be familiar to you. But something may be unknown to you like url. I have an article about REST in codeproject.
