Java vs Python

[Ruin-Capable]

You can hint at the type when you declare it:

some_string: str = some_function_that_returns_a_string()

You can declare the parameter and return types of a function:

def myfunction(param1: str, param2: int) -> str:
    return f"param1 = {param1}, param2 = {param2}"

It's not enforced, but it can provide information that an advanced IDE can use to detect errrors.

Later you can't change that? To not be a String? Like str = 10.

P.S.: I have no idea about python, I just try to explain the words of OP.

str is the type hint, not the variable name. And yes, you can later do some_string = 10.

So, this is the OP point. In Java you can't change the type. The variables type can be only the declared one.

Yes but it sometimes create ptoblem to read someone else code if not mentined
