| Strongly-typed

| Definition
| A strongly-typed programming language is one in which every data type—character, integer, etc.—is predefined in the language; and, only those data types are available to the programmer. Allowable operations are defined for every data type. The compiler enforces data typing and compliance. Strong data typing imposes a rigorous discipline on the programmer eliminating many sources of program error. Visual C# is strongly typed.
