This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
A statically typed language is one where the type of a variable is known at compile time. This means that the type of each variable must be declared and does not change throughout the program’s execution. While this can lead to a larger number of variable declarations and sometimes conversions, it also allows for type checking at compile time, which can catch many errors before the program runs. Statically typed languages include Java, C, C++, and others123.
