    Agree except Python is strongly typed.

      In what way? Python has type hinting, but it’s purely for linting and is not enforced at runtime. Python has always had dynamic duck typing.

        Yes Python is dynamically typed but not weakly typed. Try “foo” + 1.

        See https://wiki.python.org/moin/Why is Python a dynamic language and also a strongly typed language
