Types

Egon is a statically typed language providing type errors at compile time.

let a = 123;

a = "testing";
// TypeError: mismatched types: expected type `number` but received `string`

The type was inferred when declaring a but an explicit type can be defined.

let b: string = 123;

a = "testing";
// TypeError: mismatched types: expected type `string` but received `number`
