With static typing you always have to worry that your data is the correct type and in Java it shows up through casting to the right type.

Once you know all the letters, then it's just practice .
U can use software like typing tutor to type them to make them disappear before they hit the bottom.
I can type around 75 wpm.
No don't look at the keyboard.

Is there a case where you wrote something in such a language (e.g. C#, Java), and missed duck typing? (See this question for arguments against duck typing)

In computer typing test, do we type looking at the keyboard or do we type without looking at keyboard? The speed required is 40wpm.

Place onto the "D", "S",....
Put your fingers in the home position.
How you sit can affect your typing efficiency.
In a computer typing test at 40wpm, you in position.
On the F and J key, so you can find the home row without looking .

They both let you race with other people keep progress on your typing speeds (This is the most annoying thing about some of those typing speed tests).
