     I consider weakly typed, or even non-typed languages should *never* 
be used for teaching. Unless one intends to teach loose programming.


     Yet I agree interpreted languages are convenient for small things, 
precisely because they are interpreted. Conveniency also include fast 
development and architecture-independant packaging.
