What is type hinting and does Python enforce it?
Model answer
Type hints such as def add(a: int, b: int) -> int document expected types. Python does not enforce them at runtime. Tools like mypy and pyright check them statically, and editors use them for autocomplete. They make large codebases easier to maintain.
