(I know of "duck typing" as an argument *in favor* of dynamicism, and Google corroborates that impression), Beats? Markov? Whatever. I'm done with this unproductive thread. I suspect that as Vladimir points out, a bunch of Java programmers and a Python programmer are never likely to agree on the topic of typing. Heck, back in my many days as a C++ programmer I would have disagreed with post-1996 Uche. If someone starts actually discussing code or angle brackets again, maybe I'll regain some interest, but for now, I have code *and* angle brackets to write (tons of 'em). In my case, real work *is* more fun. -- Uche Ogbuji Fourthought, Inc. http://uche.ogbuji.net http://4Suite.org http://fourthought.com Use CSS to display XML - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/x-dw-x-xmlcss-i.html Full XML Indexes with Gnosis - http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/12/08/py-xml.html Be humble, not imperial (in design) - http://www.adtmag.com/article.asp?id=10286 UBL 1.0 - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-think28.html Use Universal Feed Parser to tame RSS - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-tipufp.html Default and error handling in XSLT lookup tables - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-tiplook.html A survey of XML standards - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-stand4/ The State of Python-XML in 2004 - http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/10/13/py-xml.html
