That's not what "static typed" means.

Static, referring to types, means at compile time, or before runtime, the types of variables and assignments can be verified; no invalid assignments are possible.

What you have here is dynamic typing; you can't verify the types until runtime, and then you throw an exception.

Fair point. I am editing the entry name to reflect your suggestions. Static typed -> type checked at runtime


LGTM
