Couldn't a language be made so that if you declared a variable like, say: string foo = "I'm a string" it would be a string, and always a string, and if you declared a variable like foo = "i'm a dynamic variable" it would be considered dynamic? This doesn't seem like it would be too hard to add in to a language that already had dynamic typing (But then again, I am inexperienced - although interested in - language design). It seems to me like this could be really useful, but I'm not aware of any language implementing something like this. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
