STRONG/WEAK TYPINGAs
>>6-san said, dynamic typing can be good in some specific situation. However, you will find many people on /prog/ who will swear for static typing.
Sure, looks like there are both advantages for dynamic and static typing. But what about weak typing? I don't see any real advantages for it, other than having Javashit and PHP clones. C might have weak typing but it is kind of necessary when you're dealing with low-level stuff. The static typing is also, in some way, a compensation for its loose type system.
Is there any point on discussing strong/weak typing, or can we all agree that weak typing is shit for epic Javascript appers?
