OR

It looks like there's a lot of OR on this page. Since strong/weak typing doesn't have a single accepted definition, all examples should be backed by reliable sources, but most aren't. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 15:11, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, "strong" and "weak" typing is just an attempt to simplify Type_system#Type_checking.

I don't think any researcher would use "weak" and "strong" type terminology nowdays. Ushkin N (talk) 00:57, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
