Who are people who are against typing in this day and age?
- glaucon 3y ago> Who are people who are against typing in this day and age? People who don't find the benefits of typing are worth the overhead? Python is, after all, a dynamically-typed language, so it is, surely, not too surprising that those who use it might include those who want a ... dynamic language ? If it's too much to take the joys of Java are freely available.
- nomel 3y ago> are worth the overhead? What overhead, specifically? I've found it reduces overhead. Rather than using English to describe the types, in the comments/docstrings, I can just type the terse type hint in the function definition, and leave the rest to the documentation renderer. If you don't document anyways, sure.
- yuppiepuppie 3y agoI use python daily and dont use typing. The reason being that I choose python for it readability. And I find typed python to be less readable than non-typed python. If I wanted a typed language, I wouldnt want python.
