Re: Static/Dynamic typing, lessons from the field



What I like about Common Lisp is that it has support for both of them;
both weakish and strongish typing. I also like the fact that it has got
it in the right order; weak first, as default - and strong later, if
you need it.

The other way around seems hopelessly old fashioned, unnecessary and
just plain annoying while coding.

I'm never going back. :)
