If I were to create an object in C#, for instance, I could add
code to the constructor that might limit the type further e.g.
public class Car
{
string model;
int wheels;
public Car ( string model, int no_of_wheels )
{
if ( no_of_wheels <= 2 ) {
throw new Exception( "a car must have at least 3
wheels");
}
this.model = model;
this.no_of_wheels = no_of_wheels;
}
}
I think it is not the right way to handle the number of wheels with
an exception. This should be considered an error.

Only if you think through the code you're writing - i.e. non
idiomatic C# ;)
