C# has dynamic types now and it would be hard to say it "sucks" when "hackers" and "enterprise guys" alike can use it and enjoy it for different reasons (standard static typed OO base with optional power on top like lambdas, dynamic types, implicit types, common query functions for all collections (LINQ) etc.).
- pbiggar 17y agoHaving dynamic types is not the same as being a dynamic language. With C# and Java, there are idiomatic ways of doing things, which generally involve static typing, and are generally considered verbose by the dynamic language proponents. Those idiomatic features don't go away just because there is now support for dynamic types.
- nopassrecover 17y agoFair call though the point I am largely making is that few that use both would put C# and Java in the same boat anymore. Would love to see some good examples if you have some though on the more general point you are making.
