típusbiztonságot

Típusbiztonságot is a Hungarian term that translates to "type safety" in English. It refers to the extent to which a programming language prevents or discourages type errors. A type error occurs when an operation is applied to a value of an inappropriate type, such as trying to add a string to an integer without explicit conversion.

Languages that are strongly type-safe generally enforce strict rules about how different data types can interact. This means that many potential type errors are caught at compile time, before the program is run, which can significantly reduce the number of runtime bugs. In contrast, weakly type-safe languages may allow more implicit type conversions, which can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior or runtime errors.

The concept of type safety is crucial for writing robust and maintainable software. By ensuring that operations are performed on compatible data types, type-safe languages help developers catch errors early in the development cycle, leading to more reliable programs. The degree of type safety can vary between programming languages, with some languages offering more comprehensive checks than others. Static typing, where types are checked at compile time, is often associated with strong type safety, while dynamic typing, where types are checked at runtime, can sometimes be less type-safe if not carefully managed.
