Olga Natkovich commented on PIG-22:
-----------------------------------

Brief problem description: since pig does not have types, expressions are not 
validated till runtime which is very frustrating to users. For instance, if you 
try to add a string and a float, the parser would not detect a problem.

> Need basic type checking before query execution
