i worked on a lot of dynamic typing in C long ago and that had a lot of issues in how to code it. C code was not easy and that may be why Pike still looked so static with require typing statements ("mixed" type was an add-on that still does not solve all the issues). one big reason i got into Python was because these issues were not present. i've been thinking more about this as an assembly language issue and started to get the idea this could really be made to work there if i can figure it out in C.
i was hoping Dave would have touched on dictionaries in that video. but a mixed list was good enough. that's really not so hard to handle in C (BTDTLA) i just keep thinking that Python can be the ultimate system language and it would be really cool with machine hardware designed around that (my thought is then an emulation of it).
