What it shows

  • Static typing validates data types at compile time before execution.
  • Strong typing prevents implicit coercion like adding integers to strings.
  • Dynamic typing resolves types at runtime, allowing rapid prototyping.

The takeaway

Typing time (static vs dynamic) is distinct from type enforcement strictness (strong vs weak).
