Javascript could throw an error to alert you that the input is supposed to be a string, like most languages would do.

Theoretically, Javascript is an untyped language, so there aren't supposed to really be static types. Giving type errors in this situation would be against design.

JavaScript has types and it does have type errors, for instance

> null.foo
Uncaught TypeError: null has no properties

Please stop spouting nonsense on issues you know nothing about.

Dynamic types aren't static types my man. I think you got some learning to do.

You did say untyped though.
