        Because you are embarrassing yourself and noone has been kind enough to explain: the difference is that JavaScript will let you do: var x = 1 + "foo" and coerce the types, in python that’s an error.

        Untyped python lets a name refer to different types over its lifetime (dynamic typing) but will not automatically convert types (which would be weak typing)

          It was just a joke, chill out. Someone mentioned python so I made a joke about python. I have never used Javascript, and I have no desire too.

          Fucking programmers sometimes…ya’ll take this stuff way too seriously.
