Err, sorry, C++ is *not* dynamically typed, but it does allow operator overloading. My blog entry does have links to definitions of static and dynamic typing. Funnily enough, the C++ standard library is guilty of one of the most heinous overloading crimes ever, the overloading of the left and right shift operators for use with streams. Nasty stuff.
