Re: Strong vs static

Thanks for that, a bit of clarity always helps. Not sure what "Extra enforced correctness" means though? If it's surplus to requirements that I don't like it, however "correct" it may be.

I know loads of people love strong typing, I hear about it all the time from people criticising javascript. However, I was asking if there were metrics that supported the idea behind this change, that changing javascript typing would lead to better apps.

Is there any evidence?
