I think that it could be useful to declare variables as

make it's type when a value is assigned to the variable. This

user.

I disagree on the usefulness. I think this is one of the few
things Perl got right; the problem with automatically creating
variables is that you might create one when you're not
expecting to because of a typo.

Well, do think that can be solved by making the compiler report
unused variables ?
BD
No, the problem is when you do use them, just not the ones you
want.
