How does dynamic typing work in JavaScript?

Can you explain how dynamic typing works in JavaScript?

Sure! Dynamic typing means that variables in JavaScript can hold values of any type without needing to declare the type explicitly.

What happens if I assign a different type to a variable?

If you assign a different type, JavaScript will automatically adjust the variable's type. For example, you can assign a number to a variable and later assign a string.

Can you give me an example of that?

Of course! If you do let x = 5; and then x = 'Hello';, x will change from a number to a string without any errors.

Are there any downsides to dynamic typing?

Yes, one downside is that it can lead to runtime errors if you're not careful with the types, making debugging more challenging.
