You're conflating "strong typing" with "static typing". Strong typing
does not refer to restrictions on what type of data can be stored
where, but to restrictions on how operations on that data can be
intermixed.
Yes of course I am, thank you for pointing that out.
I don't know why I have this overwhelming need to see variables
explicitly defined ... years of 'same old same old' I suppose.
I do seem to remember reading something about Python moving towards
static typing and there are tools out there to help avoid run time
disasters ... anyway, this has latched now so thanks for taking the time
to reply.
