  Programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In practice, while few languages are considered typed from the point of view of type theory (verifying or rejecting all operations), most modern languages offer a degree of typing.
However, many manifestly typed languages support partial type inference; for example, Java and C# both infer types in certain limited cases.
C, C++, and most assembly languages are often described as weakly typed.

 Programming language - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
With statically typed languages, there usually are pre-defined types for individual pieces of data (such as numbers within a certain range, strings of letters, etc.), and programmatically named values (variables) can have only one fixed type, and allow only certain operations: numbers cannot change into names and vice versa.
Most mainstream statically typed languages, such as C, C++, C#, Java and Delphi, require all types to be specified explicitly; advocates argue that this makes the program easier to understand, detractors object to the verbosity it produces.
Strongly typed languages do not permit the usage of values as different types; they are rigorous about detecting incorrect type usage, either at runtime for dynamically typed languages, or at compile time for statically typed languages.

 Programming language
Sometimes type-inferred and dynamically-typed languages are called latently typed.
Examples of strongly typed languages are: Forth, C, assembly language, C++, D, most implementations of Pascal, and OCaml.
Examples of weakly typed languages are: Eiffel, Oberon, Lisp, and Scheme.

C++ or Java), and dynamically typed languages (e.g.
It is possible to perform type inference on programs written in a dynamically-typed language, but it is legal to write programs in these languages that make type inference infeasible.
Most languages also provide ways to assemble complex data structures from built-in types and to associate names with these new combined types (using arrays, lists, stacks, files).
