Static/Dynamic vs Strong/Weak

by

  • Static/Dynamic Typing is about when type information is acquired (Either at compile time or at runtime)

  • Strong/Weak Typing is about how strictly types are distinguished (e.g. whether the language tries to do an implicit conversion from strings to numbers).

See the wiki-page for more detailed information.
