For the most part, today we see people arguing about static vs. dynamic typing. They argue about the effort involved in telling the compiler what to check, and whether having the compiler find some errors for them does or doesn't make up for the extra code.

Static typing and dynamic typing are the concerns of programming language design; thus a lack of knowledge of any particular type is not going to harm your understanding of these concepts.

Historically, "strong typing" has been associated with static typing. Languages noted for strong typing include Pascal and Ada; languages noted for weak typing (most notoriously BASIC) had primarily dynamic typing. ...

There has been a raging debate (just watch Reddit!) on static vs dynamic typing and programming language choice these days. ... Summing up, static vs dynamic typing really just means compile-time vs runtime error checking. You need not impose any needless bureaucracy upon programming practice because of it.

But anyway, I wasn't trying to argue that static typing is superior to dynamic typing, ... I get tired of the usual perspective, driven by vanilla mainstream languages, of all-static vs. all-dynamic; in a discussion at that level, I like to point out alternatives, particularly when given a setup like the one in this thread.

Ian Griffiths' Weblog ... Implicit Interfaces, Dynamic vs Static Typing, and COM - Thursday 5 January, 2006, 8:24 PM ... So we have two opposite ends of the spectrum - COM and dynamic languages. Both of them avoid the issue. Clearly static typing wasn't the problem. So what is the problem with C# and Java?

The strong vs. weak typing issue really gets people worked up. The choice has a major impact ... I'm obviously talking about static versus dynamic typing in the programming-language contexts. I'm well aware that the situation is better described as a 2x2 grid consisting of the combinations of static/dynamic and strong/weak;
