Type Safety

Domain: Code Generation

🎯 Motivation

Using type hints and type checkers to catch type-related bugs before runtime. The model can add type safety to code.

πŸ“‹ Concrete Example

Without types: β€˜def add(a, b): return a + b’ -> add(5, hello) crashes at runtime. With types: β€˜def add(a: int, b: int) -> int’ -> type checker catches the error before running.

πŸ”— Analogy

Wearing a helmet - it protects you before you crash, not after. Type safety catches bugs before runtime, preventing crashes.
