What are the differences between type inference languages?

What are the differences between type inference languages?

Type inference languages automatically deduce types of variables without explicit type annotations. Examples include Haskell, Scala, and TypeScript.

Can you explain how Haskell's type inference works?

Haskell uses a system called Hindley-Milner, which allows it to infer types based on function usage and context.

What are the advantages of using type inference?

Advantages include reduced boilerplate code, increased readability, and fewer type-related errors at compile time.

Are there any downsides to type inference?

Yes, it can sometimes lead to less explicit code, making it harder to understand for those unfamiliar with the inferred types.
