strong typing
strongly typed

    Strict enforcement of type rules with no
   exceptions.  Incorrect type usage can be detected either at
   run time or at compile time.  Strong typing catches more
   type errors than weak typing, resulting in fewer hard
   errors.  In a strongly typed language, conversion between
   types requires the use of explicit conversion functions
   ("casts") as opposed to implicit type coercion.

   Typing strength is a continuum; ML is more strongly typed
   than Java, which is more strongly typed than C.

   Strong or weak typing is independent of the choice between
   static typing and dynamic typing.  Among strongly typed
   languages, Ada, Java, Haskell and ML are statically
   typed, whereas Python and Ruby are dynamically typed.
