A very clear way of putting it. Now on to the question. Anyone know
about the schism in nomenclature that appears to be going on here?
I can find definitions of strong typing that make python weakly
typed. Clearly we know what we mean when we say it, I just have a
passing curiousity regarding when the community started attempting
to redefine the terms so that python could be said to have "strong"
typing. Not long ago, wasn't so.
