Python isn't typeless. Little example:

>>> a = "3"
>>> b = "5"
>>> a*b
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: can't multiply sequence to non-int

It's not typeless (as e.g. you'd consider Perl to be), but variables aren't 
declared by type (they are all just references to objects, in the above 
example references to two string objects, and not declared at all...).
