Hi! > right. > I don't see any reasons for types, if they are not guaranteed anyway. Well, we already have parameter types, and they are not guaranteed either - you can reassign variables. > This depends on use case. > Just imagine matrix multiplication (or something similar). > Few additional instructions would decrease the speed significantly. I think this is a very narrow use case. If somebody does large data processing (like large matrix multiplication) in pure PHP, they are doing it wrong anyway. So trying to optimize for their use case I think is not a high priority. I would say for any typical PHP app cost of one unexpected branch is negligible. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
