Type Safety
A mechanism in programming languages that enforces validation of data types at compile time or before execution, used to catch type mismatch errors before code runs.
Timeline (last 90 days)
In the swapping experiment, the type error rate was 0% under all conditions, because every answer was a valid option.
Type safety originates from the field of programming languages, referring to a program's ability at compile time or runtime to guarantee that a variable's value always conforms to its declared type, thereby catching type mismatch errors early.
Type safety refers to ensuring that the data types of variables and function inputs/outputs are verified at compile time or call time through static type systems or runtime validation.
