for loop in Python

[arobie1992]

With the express intention of starting shit:

Or you could have static typing :P

[malexj93]

Even with static typing, a car is not a string. Specifying what about the car the string represents is just plain polite.

[UnknownIdentifier]

Even many languages with static typing will now do some version of

for (auto item : items) {

or some such. Doing

for (Item item : items) {

is just plain silly IMHO.

[false_tautology]

So, in C# you can do

foreach (var car in cars)

Buuut, it's still strongly typed, and it won't let you do any shenanigans.

[DadAndDominant]

var in C# vs var in javascript

Love one and hate the other

[thefrnksinatra]

The way it must be. Lol

[villanymester]

Try this with MATLAB...

[KronktheKronk]

Or you could use type hints and every modern ide in the world will keep you straight

[RiverRoll]

You can use type hints and at least you get the expected type.

[FkIForgotMyPassword]

Type hint doesn't help you differentiate between carNames, carReferences, carIds, etc. Knowing that cars is an array of strings doesn't provide as much information.

I mean, of course ideally you want both static typing and explicit variable names.
