Python IS dynamically typed. You seem to be confusing the fact that it's strongly typed with statically typed languages.

Where in my post did I suggest otherwise? I realize I didn't word it the clearest way but I don't think I ever indicated that python was anything but dynamically typed. To be clearer:

* I prefer statically typed languages as a rule

* However, I do python at my job (which is not statically typed)

* there are many features which tend to be found in statically typed functional languages, which I would love to see in a dynamically typed, python-like language.
