Let's see: strong data typing:
Fortran Cobol Pl/1 Pascal C/C++ Java C# Ruby à la carte data typing or no data typing at all: Basic (more or less depending on the implementation) Lisp Clojure A dozen assemblers A dozen scripting languages And I probably forgot some while excluding the ones I worked with (Algol, Simula, GPSS, ...) in academic projects. I used the above ones on real projects at work and not small projects. Lets keep SQL out of the picture, it's an exaggeration to call this a programming language. Still prefer less data typing or no typing at all :) Luc P. > let's see... > really used: > sql > java > javascript > basic > pascal/delphi > scala > > experimented with: > logo (some old language intended to teach people to make their first steps) > haskell > kotlin > clojure > > seen in action: > php > groovy > > still prefer smart static typing :D > > > > > 2013/10/9 Nando Breiter <na...@aria-media.com> > > > > >> The best explanation of these misunderstandings I've come across is "What > >> to Know Before Debating Type Systems": > >> > >> http://cdsmith.wordpress.com/2011/01/09/an-old-article-i-wrote/ > >> > >> > > I have learned quite a lot from reading this article and following this > > discussion, particularly that "type" and "type checking" is much more > > nuanced and complex than I have understood until now, and that the terms > > "static" and "dynamic" expand into a much larger range of issues upon close > > examination, such as the difference between explicitly declaring types (as > > in Java) and implicitly inferring types from code context.
