I wondered if there is a programming language which compiles to machine code/binary (not bytecode then executed by a VM, that's something completely different when considering typing) that features dynamic and/or weak typing, e.g:
Think of a compiled language where:
- Variables don't need to be declared
- Variables can be created doing runtime
- Functions can return values of different types
Questions:
- Is there such a programming language?
- (Why) not?
I think that a dynamically yet strong typed, compiled language would really sense, but is it possible?
