This. "Static typing fans hardly ever acknowledge how difficult the types make it to read the code. Too much focus on that one time when someone made a typo and there was no unit test." Well said.
- tigershark 8y agoSame question to you, what do you find difficult to read in the code that I posted in the previous comment?
- xrd 8y agoHey, sorry, I meant to post my comment into the parent comment of yours. I didnt mean to state your code was difficult to read, I was thinking of all the Java code I've seen over the years...
- xrd 8y agoAnd, point well made about not needing to know the types but still getting compile assistance because of the types.
