Static Typing
Static typing means that types are known and checked for correctness before running your program. This is often done by the language's compiler. For example, the following Java method would cause a compile-error, before you run your program:
public void foo() {
int x = 5;
boolean b = x;
}
Dynamic Typing
Dynamic typing means that types are only known as your program is running. For example, the following Python (3, if it matters) script can be run without problems:
def erroneous():
s = 'cat' - 1
print('hi!')
It will indeed output hi!. But if we call erroneous:
def erroneous():
s = 'cat' - 1
erroneous()
print('hi!')
A TypeError will be raised at run-time when erroneous is called.
