Sets, types and type checking


My currently understanding of types

Not everything can benefit from the additional syntax, but for data based problems, writing out the types before the logic can help better structure the program and understand what needs to be accomplished. This form is a lot more efficient as we just need to create a single wrapper Type and don't have to inspect or copy any of the internal structure when we instantiate a specific version of an Array. Languages that have chevron groupings for<> generic arguments and>> for the shift operator can create havoc for parsers that are not completely context aware.
