Statically Typed

This dimension groups programming languages by their typing discipline, statically typed, dynamically typed or untyped. Wikipedia notes that a programming language is meant for "expressing computer programs, typically allowing software to be written in a human readable manner," and how it tracks data types is one of its most basic design choices. Browsing by typing discipline keeps languages that handle types the same way grouped together.
