| weak typing Strict enforcement of rules but with well-defined exceptions or an explicit type-violation mechanism. Weak typing is "friendlier" to the programmer than , but catches fewer errors at compile time. and {C++} are weakly typed, as they automatically many types e.g. and . E.g. int a = 5; float b = a; They also allow ignore for the purposes of type comparison; for example the following is allowed, which would probably be disallowed in a strongly typed language: typedef int Date; /* Type to represent a date */ Date a = 12345; int b = a; /* What does the coder intend? */ C++ is stricter than C in its handling of enumerated types: enum animal {CAT=0,DOG=2,ANT=3}; enum animal a = CAT; /* NB The enum is optional in C++ */ enum animal b = 1; /* This is a warning or error in C++ */ (2000-07-04) |
